Resident parking for apartments, from lease-up to turnover.
In multifamily, parking is either an administrative cost or an income line, and the difference is almost entirely whether anybody is keeping track of it.
HOAs
Most HOA parking disputes are not about parking.
What it looks likeCondo associations
A condo building has two kinds of space and often two kinds of resident — the owner who holds a deeded bay and the tenant renting their unit.

You are here.
Commercial lots
There is good software for an airport garage and good apps for an hourly space downtown.
What it looks likeCampuses
Campus parking is a scale problem for three weeks a year and an enforcement problem for the rest.

What goes wrong
Four problems, and what happens to each one.
Lease-up, where sixty residents arrive in a fortnight
Import the list you already have, see exactly what will be created, then invite everybody — each invitation carrying the parking agreement to sign.
Turnover, where they leave the same way
Ending an assignment stops the permit, frees the space and offers it to the waitlist, in one act.
The second car nobody is charging for
A second vehicle has its own rate, prorated. It is the single fastest change to what a lot earns.
Reporting to an owner who asks for numbers
Occupancy, revenue, delinquency and turnover, exportable as the same figures the screen shows.
Getting started
What the first afternoon looks like.
- Describe the lot
Areas, levels and zones if you use them, then the spaces in ranges rather than one at a time.
- Pay for the spaces
Per space, per month, once you can see your own number.
- Bring people in
Import the list you keep, or invite them one at a time, with the agreement attached.
- Set the rates and the rules
Monthly rate, second vehicle, guest passes, offence types and fees.
Questions from apartment communities.
Does this integrate with our property management system?
Not yet, as an API integration. Today you import a CSV from it — a preview of exactly what will be created, then that. Direct imports from the common systems are on the roadmap and we will not claim them before they ship.
Can we charge parking on the lease instead?
You can run spaces at no rate and bill through your existing system; everything else — permits, passes, enforcement, the waitlist — works the same. Most communities find it simpler to bill the parking here, because that is where the space is.
Several buildings on one account?
Yes, with a selector on every page, and billing that can be joint or separate per building.
One price, whatever kind of building it is.
Per space, per month, with everything included. Describe your lot and the arithmetic is yours to check.
