The New Free Tool Property Managers Have Been Waiting For...

As COVID-19 and its aftermath have taught us to do more work remotely, Bricks + Agent empowers Property Managers to do even more. We are incredibly proud and excited to launch the Remote Inspections feature for Property Managers, Tenants and Property Owners.


Remote Inspections is a feature many Property Managers and Tenants will be enjoying moving forward, as more digital interactions become the new normal in this post COVID-19 world.

 

Remote Inspections by Bricks and Agent allow Property Managers to carry out inspections of their properties without needing to physically visit each property. Using thorough checklists of items to inspect in each property, the feature ensures Property Managers don’t miss a thing during an inspection.

 

For Rafael Niesten, founder of Bricks + Agent, remote inspections are “A way to inspection a property from anywhere you have a computer and internet connection. No OH&S risks, no petrol, no parking, no traffic jams. Full HD video is stored and the tenant is actively involved in the inspection. There is also one click maintenance whereby at the conclusion of the inspection all the maintenance requests are drafted and easily able to be sent without the need for another application or copying and pasting.  “

 

While COVID19 restrictions are easing, we strongly encourage anyone already using Bricks and Agent to use the Remote Inspections feature now and catch up on the inevitable backlog of inspections that has accumulated since the beginning of the year.

 

If you are not a Bricks + Agent user yet, reach out to one of our team for a demo of our integrated maintenance and inspection platform.

In his early 20s, Perth local Rafael Niesten, won a scholarship to study in Canada, with that came the opportunity to volunteer at a local radio station. That spawned his entrepreneurial streak, returning to Perth in 2001 he set up community radio Groove FM. More by luck than design, they became successful, too successful as they took a significant chunk of the Perth Market. This sent up the red flag with his commercial competitors who saw to it that he came before the Australian Broadcasting Authority and on technicalities such as the number of volunteers he was forced to move on. He received the citizen of the year award for Western Australia (youth) and was a finalist in the Australian of the year awards (Youth). Falling on his sword he turned to running small and large scale events, all the while buying, renovating and selling properties. Buying and selling land and renovated houses provided a grounding in the property industry. He founded a cloud based medical grade voice recognition company, followed by co founding the first true cloud application for private practice in the health sector. He successfully exited these ventures at the end of 2016 and began building Bricks+Agent.
