Description
I am a Co-Founder of Buildium, an online property management software company. I work with Property Managers, Landlords, HOAs, and Condo Associations to provide the best property management tools.

About Us:

Back in the late '90s, three guys were working for a technology consulting company in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The trio soon learned they shared an interest in real estate. With dreams of becoming real estate moguls, they formed MIDICH Properties (MIchael, DImitris, CHris) and bought their first rental property together in Providence, Rhode Island, in 2002. More purchases followed. Before long, they were losing track of which leases were expiring and which tenants hadn't paid their rent — "minor" stuff like that. That's when they began looking for property management software. They weren't sure exactly what they needed, but it had to be easy to use, accessible anywhere with an Internet connection and have all the features necessary to manage their properties. After coming up empty-handed in their search, they decided to put their expensive computer science degrees to good use and build something for themselves. A few months later, Buildium was born.

Testimonials

"Buildium was the clear choice for us.  The best feature isn't actually a feature at all; it's Buildium's wonderful willingness to listen to its customers!" -Tina Hyder, Hyder Properties, LLC

"I love that Buildium is web based and you have your dashboard right there reminding each individual of what needs to be done." -M. Titche, AZ

"Our division was looking to change to a web based solution. The multi family residential division was using another package, but we chose Buildium because of its ease of use and competitive pricing. For us, Buildium was a much better alternative. I love that Buildium is web based and you have your dashboard right there reminding each individual of what needs to be done." -Megan Titche, Morrison Ekre & Bart Management Services, Inc, Tucson, AZ

"My bookkeeper was about to move back home to Missouri and needed to work from home. Additionally, I wanted an online solution so I didn't have to worry about losing my data. Buildium was exactly what we were looking for. Buildium is by far the most comprehensive program available, with its ability to collect rent payments online and its reasonable transaction fees. The ability to track maintenance requests and work orders online is also a huge perk and an added bonus to the program." -Christopher Swanson, Evolve Property Management, LLC, Washington, DC

"Our employees are located in several different cities across Northern Colorado; therefore we needed a something we could access from anywhere. That's why we decided to look at Buildium. Once we discovered that Buildium had all the features we were looking for, the decision was easy. Before we started using Buildium, we were keeping everything in spreadsheets. It worked fairly well, but it was really time consuming. Now that we're using Buildium, things like calculating management fees are a snap. Now I can't imagine running our property management division without it." -Jeanne Robinson, Exit Preferred Real Estate, Loveland, CO
