BuildTools

Developer of SaaS Project management tools for the construction industry. That is the short version of BuildTools. The job it does: leases, rent, maintenance and tenant communication.

The natural audience is property managers and landlords. Related areas on their profile: Construction, Management Consulting and Real Estate. As a small product team themselves (11 to 50 people), they tend to serve customers of a similar scale best. You will probably talk to the people who build it, which is great until you need 24/7 support.

BuildTools is based in Wayzata, Minnesota and founded in 2010. Their site is buildtools.com.

Our checklist for this category: online payments, screening, and accounting. Ask for a trial on your own data, not a canned demo.

If you have worked with BuildTools, tell the next buyer what you paid and what surprised you. That is the part of this page we cannot write.
