Custom software development for real estate agents.
For real estate agencies who want results in weeks, not a year-long transformation programme.
Listing copy, buyer follow-ups and appraisal requests drafted fast, with personal information handled under the Privacy Act 2020.
Knows the New Zealand rules.
Business systems wired into the tools New Zealand organisations already run, like Xero, so data is entered once and stays consistent.
- Xero, founded in New Zealand
- GST at 15 per cent
- Serious breaches get reported
On the tools or running at scale, the admin still eats the week :)
Quotes with GST, consent paperwork, LBP records and health and safety logs: the admin every New Zealand trade business carries.
*Illustrative example based on nine hours a week of admin. Actual results vary by workflow and business.
The pattern across most real estate agencies we work with.
Agents live on their phones between open homes, listing enquiries, and vendor updates that can't wait until Monday.
Lead response speed decides who gets the listing, and most agencies lose leads simply because nobody replied fast enough.
Not your typical AI agency.
*Every engagement is scoped and quoted up front. Results vary by workflow and business.
How it works in New Zealand
We find the one workflow costing real estate agencies the most hours, ship a working slice into production in weeks, prove it pays for itself, then harden it and hand it over.
One workflow.
In production.
In weeks.
What custom software development covers
We'd call the engagement a success when real estate agencies are using the system without thinking about us.
- Internal systems for jobs, quotes, stock, rosters and reporting
- Client and supplier portals with proper logins and permissions
- Integrations with Xero, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace and the tools you already run
- Code, data and hosting accounts owned by you from day one
- No annual contracts
- No AI theatre
Questions real estate agencies ask
What's the realistic outcome for real estate agencies?
We map the process with the people who do the work first, then build the smallest system that replaces the spreadsheet. We don't promise tenfold lifts because we don't see them outside of marketing decks.
What's the realistic timeline for custom software development with a real estate agency?
Most real estate agencies have their first usable slice in week 5 or 6. We'd rather ship narrow and real than broad and aspirational - your team gets to use the thing well before the engagement is "done".
What happens if we want to swap a vendor out later?
Custom software development is built behind a small adapter layer specifically so swapping a model provider or a data source is a one-day job, not a re-architecture. TypeScript, Postgres, Next.js, Cloudflare, Xero API are our defaults, but the build is intentionally portable.
What happens when the Holidays Act is replaced?
The Employment Leave Act 2026 replaces it on 6 August 2028. Until then payroll follows the current Holidays Act, so leave calculations need to handle today's rules and the changeover.
Can it remind us about the annual return?
Yes. Every company must file an annual return with the Companies Office each year, separate from its tax return.
