Levies and communications

The arc

Set entitlements → model → approve → issue → track. OurCommons makes the whole chain frictionless.

01

Levies are complicated. OurCommons isn't.

Once you know what your building expenses are going to be... you need to fund them. Levies are complicated. But once you set up your unit entitlements in OurCommons: planning, approving, issuing and tracking them become a breeze.

  • Our platform lets you draft one-off or recurring levies, model financial impacts on your owners, and track payments and arrears.
02

What if we raise $X over Y years?

What if we raise $X over Y years? What does that look like per lot, per month? Could we one-shot it if its small enough to get it over and done with?

  • Our modelling tools show the per-lot, per-month impact of any levy scenario before you commit to anything.
03

Submit, approve, without the calls.

Submit draft levy proposals to your committee or owners (as needed) for digital approval or, if legally required at an EGM/AGM, by automatically adding an agenda item for your next relevant meeting along with the financial workings.

  • One-click digital approval: no phone rounds, no chasing emails.
04

One click out. One ledger in.

Once approved, issue levy notices with one-click to owners. Track payments and automate followups and reminder notices to save time.

  • Payment plans can be requested, reviewed, approved and tracked on the platform.
  • Payments are matched to receipts automatically; arrears are surfaced the moment they appear.
