For letting agents and property managers

Every repair, from the tenant’s photo to a signed-off job.

Crooh Rentals runs maintenance, inspections and compliance without you chasing a single contractor.

Somewhere in this building, a geyser just burst.

Without Crooh

One burst geyser. One whole day.

  1. 07:42Tenant: the geyser burst. There’s water everywhere.
  2. 08:10You message three plumbers. One reads it.
  3. 11:30The owner wants another quote.
  4. 16:00The plumber is “on his way”. He isn’t.
  5. FridayThe tenant leaves a one-star review.

With Crooh

The cross-company job card.

A job ends only when a real technician signs it off on his phone, even one who works for another company. Follow one repair from start to finish. The job card in the corner fills itself in as you go.

  1. 01

    The tenant reports it on WhatsApp

    A photo of the problem, sent to your Crooh number. No app, no login. It lands in your queue as a job, not a message you have to remember.

  2. 02

    You cost it

    Request quotes from your panel and compare them on the job. Small jobs can auto-approve under a limit you set per property.

  3. 03

    The owner approves it

    They see the photo and the quote from a link and approve in two taps. No phone tag.

  4. 04

    The contractor is dispatched

    The job card goes straight to the contractor, with the photo, the quote and the address. Crooh checks their cover first.

An expired contractor never gets the job.

Public liability and COIDA cover are checked when you dispatch. If either has lapsed, Crooh blocks it. Every building shows its compliance status live.

Everything the building needs.

Residential and commercial. One record per building, from the geyser to the generator.

Early access for founding agencies

Start with one building.

  1. Tell us who you are. Early access is open to a founding group of agencies.
  2. We set it up with you. Send one spreadsheet of properties, units, owners, tenants and contractors. Onboarding is founder-led.
  3. Run your next move-out through Crooh. Then roll it out to the rest of the portfolio.

From R99 per unit per month. Month to month, no lock-in.

Your first month is free. Run your first building on Crooh for a month at no cost. If it isn’t for you, cancel before the second month and you pay nothing.

What agents ask first

We already use rental accounting software. Do we have to switch?
No. Keep whatever runs your rent and trust accounts. Crooh only handles how the building physically runs: maintenance, inspections, compliance and contractors. It sits alongside your financial system, not over it.
Do tenants have to install an app?
No. Tenants report on WhatsApp with a photo and get status updates there. There is nothing to install and no login to remember.
What if my contractor isn’t on Crooh?
Dispatch to them anyway. They get the job card without needing an account. Contractors who join the Crooh network sign the job off on their own phones, even when they work for another company.
How does this help with deposit disputes?
Inspections are room by room with photos. When the tenant signs, the record locks and nobody can edit it later. You can share it with the owner as a secure link.
What does it cost?
Your first month is free. After that, from R99 per unit per month, lower with volume. Month to month, no lock-in. Contractors who join the Crooh network pay for their own licence.
Is our data safe?
Crooh processes tenant and owner details as an operator under POPIA. Your data stays yours, you can export it on request, and it is deleted when you leave.

That’s a finished repair.

Signed on site by the technician and locked, so nobody can change the record later.

P.S. Every repair you chase by hand is a day of your week and a mark on your reputation with the owner. Your first month is free, you start with one building, and you stay month to month.
