How does MakaoYetu handle Sectional Properties Act clearance in Kenya?

MakaoYetu generates Management Clearance Certificates (MCC) for Ardhi House and notaries when sectional ownership changes, with owner statements and repair audit trails in one workflow.

Can each estate use its own M-Pesa Paybill without payment collisions?

Yes. Each property can have a dedicated Safaricom Paybill. Incoming payments are matched using estate-specific account references so the same unit number in different buildings never collides.

What mobile apps does MakaoYetu provide for estates?

Tenant App, Owner App, Caretaker App with photo-proof meter readings, Gate App for visitors, Contractor App for repairs, and Guest App for short-stay check-in — all mobile-first PWAs.

How are owner service charges separated from tenant water billing?

Dual-stream billing on one physical unit: owners receive service charge invoices and statements; tenants receive water and rent lines — segregated for margin protection and audit clarity.

How It Works

1. Sign up and choose your workspace

Create your organization, pick a Kenyan template (sectional estate, full letting, short-stay) or start empty, and invite your team with role-based access.

2. Configure properties and billing units

Import or create properties, units, owners, and tenants. Dual-stream billing separates owner service charges from tenant water on the same physical unit.

3. Run monthly billing in one screen

Dedicated wizards for service charge, meter readings with photo proof, and special levies. One click generates invoices and opens SMS, email, or WhatsApp dispatch.

4. Reconcile M-Pesa automatically

Safaricom payments post against open invoices using W-codes and S-codes. Arrears dashboards and owner statements update in real time.

5. Serve every stakeholder

Tenants pay via the Tenant App, owners download statements and Ardhi House clearance certificates, caretakers capture meter readings with photo proof, and Airbnb guests receive a Guest App link — all connected to the same ledger.

Sectional Properties Act compliance

Generate Management Clearance Certificates (MCC) for Ardhi House and notaries in one click when sectional ownership changes — owner statements and repair audit trails included.

Per-estate M-Pesa routing

Each building keeps its own Safaricom Paybill. Automatic C2B matching with W-codes and S-codes prevents collisions when Unit 101 exists in multiple estates.

Segregated billing streams

Service charge invoices for owners and water or rent lines for residents stay strictly separated on one physical unit — margin protection and audit clarity built in.

Mobile apps for everyone

Lightweight PWAs instead of complicated desktop portals: Tenant App, Owner App, Caretaker App with photo-proof readings, and Guest App for short stays with door codes and Wi-Fi.

Built for Kenyan estates — not generic property software

Sectional compliance, collision-free M-Pesa routing, segregated billing, and mobile apps your stakeholders actually use on WhatsApp and smartphone.
