Services · Mobile app development · Property management apps
We take on property management app development in Jeddah for landlords and management firms with apartment blocks, furnished units, villas and shops along the coast. One app records each Ejar contract, collects rent through the approved digital routes, logs maintenance from the first photo to the closed job, sends owners their statements and gives tenants a portal they can actually use. It is shaped around a port city where salt air wears out equipment quickly and tenants change more often than inland.
Discovery, design reviews and acceptance testing for Jeddah clients run by video call with our Riyadh and Dubai teams, using screen sharing and test builds on your own phones, so your staff never wait for someone to fly in before a decision is made.

Inside the app
Rented property in Jeddah behaves differently from Riyadh. Humidity and salt corrode air conditioning units, pumps and pipework, so maintenance volume is high and seasonal. Tenants include long staying Saudi families, expatriate staff of trading and logistics firms near the port, university students and people taking furnished flats for a few months. Older central districts sit next to new towers in the north, and redevelopment of unplanned neighbourhoods in recent years moved many households, which still shows in turnover. Your app needs to cope with all of that. These are the modules we would normally propose, starting with the ones that remove the most manual work for a Jeddah operator.
Tenants pick a category such as cooling, water leak, electrical or pests, add photos or a short video, and the request lands with the right technician. Urgent categories like a dead air conditioner in August jump the queue automatically, while cosmetic jobs wait for a scheduled visit.
The jobs that make tenants leave are fixed first.
Coastal buildings need shorter service cycles for split units, chillers, water tanks and rooftop equipment. The app keeps a calendar per building, assigns the contractor and records each visit, so you can see which towers near the Corniche need replacement parts more often than those inland.
Fewer breakdowns and evidence for replacement budgets.
Staff walk each room with a phone, tick items and take timestamped photos at check in and check out. With higher turnover in Jeddah, especially in furnished units, these reports settle deposit disputes quickly and show what must be repaired before the next tenant arrives.
Faster turnaround between tenants and fewer deposit arguments.
Furniture, appliances and linen are listed per unit with condition and purchase date. Missing or damaged items found at checkout feed straight into the deposit statement and a replacement order, so furnished flats in Al Hamra or Al Shati are ready again without a separate stock count.
Inventory losses become visible instead of disappearing.
Each unit carries its Ejar contract number, term, instalment plan and renewal date. Staff are prompted before registration or renewal steps fall due, and the record stays ready in case the rent rules now applied in Riyadh are extended to other cities, which REGA has the power to do.
Contract records stay consistent with what is registered.
Monthly, quarterly or semi annual instalments are tracked against payments made through Ejar's digital channels for homes and through your gateway for shops. Reminders go out in Arabic or English before each due date, then escalate to a call list for your collections officer.
Arrears are spotted in days, not at the end of the quarter.
Arabic and English as standard, with room for further languages where your tenants need them. Tenants see their lease, instalments, receipts, requests and building notices, and can book a viewing slot for a technician rather than waiting at home all day.
Clear communication with a mixed tenant base.
Many Jeddah units belong to owners who live in another city or abroad. Each owner gets a login with monthly statements, repair approvals above a limit they set, and copies of invoices, so the management firm is not sending the same spreadsheet by email every month.
Owners stay informed without phoning your office.
External plumbers, cooling specialists and pest control firms receive jobs, upload quotes and invoices, and mark work done with photos. You can compare response times and repeat visits per vendor before renewing their contract.
Vendors are judged on records, not on impressions.
When a water tank is cleaned, a lift is serviced or cooling is switched off for repairs, every tenant in that building receives a notice in their language with the date, the expected duration and who to contact. Notices are logged against the building, so staff can show later that tenants were told in advance.
Fewer surprised tenants and fewer angry calls on shutdown days.
Who it suits
We have written this page for property businesses whose main headache is volume: lots of small repairs, frequent move outs and owners who want regular reports. Tenant management app development in Jeddah also suits firms that are tired of handling every request through personal phones and group chats that leave no record when a staff member leaves. The four profiles below describe where a custom app tends to replace the most manual effort. Most firms recognise themselves in two of them at once, for example a management company that also runs a block of furnished flats, and the app can serve both without forcing one workflow on the other. Discovery confirms which one is closest to you.
If you let furnished flats for a few months at a time to professionals, families relocating or visitors who pass through the city, your costs sit in turnover: cleaning, inventory checks, linen, and fast repairs between stays. We build condition reports, inventory and housekeeping tasks into one flow so a unit can be checked out, cleaned, inspected and relisted the same day.
Short stay licensing rules differ from residential leases; confirm yours before launch.
Firms that look after units owned by people living elsewhere live and die by reporting. Our rental property management app development in Jeddah for these firms puts owner statements, repair approvals and document storage in each owner's own login, with the firm's fees calculated automatically per contract.
Fee calculation rules are agreed per contract type in discovery.
Buildings in established districts such as Al Rawdah or Al Baghdadiyah often need more maintenance, have tenants who prefer phone calls and keep contracts in paper files. We start with a staff app that captures calls and paper records properly, then add a simple tenant portal once the data is clean.
Staff tools first, tenant features second.
Newer towers around Obhur and the northern districts attract tenants who expect to do everything on their phones. Here the tenant portal, online requests and digital move in carry more weight, alongside planned servicing so warranty periods on new equipment are not lost through missed visits.
Warranty tracking protects the value of new equipment.
How engagements run
A fixed scope first release suits most Jeddah operators, because the maintenance problem is clear and the benefit shows quickly. After launch, a monthly retainer covers new features and support through the busy summer months. Firms with several hundred units and their own IT staff sometimes prefer a dedicated team. Codeeo has delivered 200+ projects across the UAE and the US, and the effort on yours depends on the number of user roles, how many contractors and owners need logins, and how much paper history must be digitised first. Those factors are measured in discovery and written into the estimate.
A defined build with a deadline
We agree what the product has to do, write it down with a price and a date, and build exactly that. Changes are priced before they are made, not discovered on the invoice.
A product that keeps evolving
Named engineers who work your hours, join your standups and stay on the codebase. You direct the backlog; we own the quality of what ships.
Something live that needs looking after
A monthly block of hours for improvements, fixes and the small requests that otherwise wait months. Unused hours carry for a quarter.
Technology
Mobile apps for tenants and technicians, a web dashboard for the office, and offline support for technicians working in basements or plant rooms with weak signal. Photo and video storage is sized for heavy maintenance use, and hosting location is agreed with you. Integrations with your accounting system are planned in discovery so rent and repair costs post once, not twice.

It is driven by scope, integrations and data, not a fixed package.
A maintenance and condition report app for one firm's staff is a smaller job than a platform with tenant portals, owner logins, vendor access and accounting integration. The number of buildings matters less than the number of different workflows. We give a written estimate after discovery, once we know your user roles and systems, and we can split the work into phases so the most useful part ships first. Payment can be split by milestone so you see working software before each stage is paid.
