The Problem
Property management runs on spreadsheets and 20 year old software
The industry has two choices: legacy platforms built before smartphones existed, or consumer tools that cannot handle compliance, reporting, or scale. Local authorities and housing bodies are stuck using generic CRMs never designed for property.
This is a $5.9 billion market where the incumbents are ripe for disruption.
Legacy platforms like Buildium and Yardi are slow, expensive, and built for a pre-cloud world
Housing bodies and local authorities use generic CRMs that require hundreds of thousands in custom development
Manual processes tie up operational time in rent calculations, payment reconciliation, and compliance reporting
European regulation requires local compliance that US platforms do not support, leaving a massive gap in the market
No single platform covers private landlords, AHBs, and local authorities, forcing each segment to cobble together different tools
What We Build
One platform for every type of property manager
Rentalize replaces fragmented tools with a single platform that handles everything from tenant onboarding and rent collection to compliance reporting and maintenance.

Investment Thesis
Why invest in Rentalize
Underserved $5.9B Market
Irish and UK property managers run on US platforms that do not handle local rules, or on legacy tools, and social housing teams still use spreadsheets and generic CRMs. Rentalize serves both from one platform built for Irish and UK regulation.
$5.9B
Property management software market by 2033 (Grand View Research).
Recurring Revenue, Low Churn
SaaS model with monthly and annual subscriptions on published plans. Tenancy, rent and compliance records live in the platform, which makes it essential-service software.
Proven Traction
Paying Local Authority customer, 5,000+ units under management, and more than 200,000 applications processed with zero downtime, including a single week that peaked at 4,600. A revenue generating platform with a referenceable customer, not a pitch deck company.
European Beachhead with Global Path
Strong position in Ireland and UK with a clear, repeatable expansion playbook. EU regulation favours compliance-native platforms over US imports. Continental expansion planned for 2027.
PropTech + GovTech Convergence
Rentalize sits at the intersection of two high-growth verticals. PropTech for the technology, GovTech for the government buyer. This dual positioning expands our addressable market.
Government Contracts
Public sector contracts are long-term and sticky. Our first local authority customer has generated €50K in revenue and is actively recommending Rentalize to other authorities. Ireland has 31 local authorities, and Rentalize Select plans are published from €12,000 a year.
ESG
Built green by default
Rentalize is paperless by default. Every tenancy is digital, every lease is e-signed, and the platform runs on efficient EU cloud infrastructure. The tools we ship actively reduce energy waste in the housing our customers manage.
Paperless tenancies
Digital leases, e-signatures, automated document storage, and online notices. Housing bodies on Rentalize stop printing thousands of pages per year per 1,000 units.
Low-carbon cloud
Hosted in EU-region data centres powered by low-carbon grids and GDPR aligned. No on-premise servers for customers, no duplicate infrastructure per tenant.
Energy efficiency for landlords
BER tracking shows where energy upgrades are due, and scheduled inspections and recurring servicing catch issues before they become emergency call-outs.
Mission aligned with social impact
Our main market is property management companies with 50 to 5,000 units in Ireland and the UK. Social and affordable housing is our base: Rentalize Select serves local authority and AHB tenant sections, cost rental and affordable purchase, supporting public sector goals for more accessible, better managed homes.
Audit-ready reporting
More than 50 board-ready reports on every plan, a compliance audit trail across RTB, BER, safety certificates and S.I. 137 minimum standards, and a full decision record on every allocation.

The global property management software market is projected to reach $5.9 billion by 2033, growing at a 6.4% CAGR (Grand View Research). The broader PropTech market exceeded $42 billion in 2024 and is projected to surpass $119 billion by 2032 (Allied Market Research).
We serve three sector groups. Private and commercial: property management companies, letting agents, private landlords, developers and fund managers. Our main focus is property management companies with 50 to 5,000 units in Ireland and the UK, on Rentalize Core. Social and affordable housing: local authorities and approved housing bodies, served by Rentalize Select for tenant sections, cost rental and affordable purchase. Specialist: student accommodation, facilities and contractor management. We are currently focused on Ireland and the UK, with European expansion planned.
Rentalize is built for Irish and UK real estate. Our key differentiators are: (1) one platform for property management companies, letting agents, landlords and housing bodies, (2) Irish compliance reporting built in, covering RTB registration, rent reviews, the 2026 rent cap, BER and safety certificates, (3) a choice of AI engine, with no tenant data used for AI training and a full AI audit trail, and (4) reporting that is not gated: the BI suite, compliance engine and Talia are on every plan.
Rentalize is revenue generating with a paying Local Authority customer, manages over 5,000 units, and has processed more than 200,000 applications with zero downtime, including a single week that peaked at 4,600 with 100:1 oversubscription.
