Does EstateOS include trust accounting on day one?

v1 includes read-only trust sync from PropertyMe or Console Cloud for reporting during migration. Native EstateOS trust ledger writes are on the PropertyMe replacement (PM-R1) track — we do not claim full trust replacement until that program is live for your agency.

Is EstateOS only for agencies that also do sales?

EstateOS shines when sales and PM share one database, but PM-only agencies migrate for inspections, maintenance triage, landlord reports, and modern tenant portals.

How long does a PropertyMe migration take?

Most PM-focused agencies cut over in two to four weeks with portfolio CSV, opening balances, and optional read-only bridge for at most one rent cycle.

Does EstateOS auto-dispatch tradies from maintenance AI?

No. AI classifies urgency and drafts comms; your property manager approves before a verified tradie is contacted or trust money moves.

Comparison

EstateOS vs PropertyMe

PM-focused: trust accounting, ledger, compliance

TL;DR

PropertyMe is the PM ledger incumbent with per-property pricing and native trust writes. EstateOS suits agencies adding sales CRM, AI-assisted workflows with human review, and modern portals — with a honest v1 read-only trust bridge and a PM-R1 path to native ledger.

~$6-12 per property / month

Decision guide

When each option fits

Choose PropertyMe if…

You are PM-only with hundreds of properties and need native trust writes today.
Per-property pricing is working and you have no sales desk to consolidate.
Your team is satisfied with PropertyMe tenant and tradie UX as-is.
You do not need Section 32, vendor portals, or sales AI workflows.

Choose EstateOS if…

Sales and PM should live in one database with shared contacts and properties.
Maintenance triage, landlord reports, and inspection drafts need AI — with PM approval before send.
You want tenant and tradie portals at WCAG 2.2 AA without a separate sales CRM.
You are ready for a phased migration off PropertyMe trust writes via the PM-R1 program.

AI comparison

Drafts your team approves — not auto-send

PropertyMe

PropertyMe does not ship native AI assist for maintenance, inspections, or landlord reporting as of mid-2026.

EstateOS

Maintenance triage, inspection report drafts, landlord EOFY packs, and bond dispute drafting are AI-assisted — PM or agent approves before anything reaches tenants, landlords, or tradies.

Human-in-the-loop

Dispatch, portal updates, and outbound comms require logged human approval. AI classifies and drafts; your PM sends. Unreviewed AI content never surfaces on client-facing endpoints.
