Per-agent CRM costs eating your commission share?
Agencies and property firms run on CRM, listing portals, e-signatures, accounting, and marketing stacks. Every tool priced per agent, per month. Growing team = growing bill. Self-hosted alternatives give you the same workflows without the per-seat penalty, and keep buyer + tenant data on SA infrastructure for POPIA peace of mind.
Three pains specific to real estate.
Per-agent CRM pricing scales badly
Salesforce, HubSpot, and vertical CRMs charge per seat. A 20-agent office pays the CRM vendor more than a junior conveyancer.
E-signature per-envelope fees
Every offer, every lease, every FICA document. Self-hosted Documenso or LibreSign removes the per-signature tax.
Buyer and tenant data spread across vendors
POPIA data-subject requests get ugly when personal info lives in four different SaaS tools across three jurisdictions.

What we do for real estate
Savings is just the start.
Real Estatefirms also come to us for the security, compliance, and build work that goes with the stack swap. Here's what that usually looks like.
The things your sector cares about.
POPIA for buyer, tenant, and landlord data
ID numbers, bank statements, affordability assessments. Special-category territory. Self-hosted keeps it auditable and in SA.
FICA for trust accounts
Estate agents handling trust money have FICA accountability. We configure stack to produce the audit trail FICA expects.
Cross-border buyer data
International buyers and SARB compliance. Self-hosted simplifies what would otherwise be a multi-vendor POPIA transfer nightmare.
Free audit. No pitch.
A 30-minute call. We look at your current stack, your headcount, your compliance posture. You get a written assessment with exact Rand numbers. You decide from there.
