A simpler rent collection workflow for Kenyan property managers

Rent collection becomes harder to follow when records are spread across spreadsheets, messages and bank statements. A clear workflow gives each invoice, payment and reminder a place in the account history.

Prepare the tenant and property records

Start with the property, unit reference, current tenant, rent amount and opening balance. Confirm contact details and resolve duplicate records. A clean starting point reduces confusion when invoices and reminders are generated.

Generate and review invoices

Review the billing period and any adjustments before documents go out. Royalmark Rental System supports automated invoices and receipts, helping you keep recurring documents within a consistent process.

Check payments at the source

Match incoming transactions using the receiving account or configured integration. A forwarded message should not be the only check. Keep unmatched references, partial payments and disputed amounts visible for follow-up.

Send useful reminders

Use clear reminders that identify the account, period and outstanding amount. Royalmark supports SMS, email and WhatsApp alerts. Confirm messaging allowances and setup requirements, and maintain a direct route for tenants to ask questions.

Finish with a portfolio review

Review collections, unpaid balances and accounts that still need attention. Keep the underlying invoices and transactions accessible so your team can explain the figures. Discuss your bank account setup and reporting needs during a demonstration before choosing a package.
