Instead of Rex PM
Stop renting Rex PM. Own the system your rent roll runs on.
We build your version around how your property managers handle tenancies, late rent, inspections and repairs, move your landlords, properties and tenancies out of Rex, and run it for you. Your sales team can stay on whatever CRM they like.
Rex does not publish a price for Rex PM. Its plans page shows no prices at all, and the figure arrives in a proposal after a discovery session and a tailored demo.

What the proposal covers
A property management product sold beside a sales platform
Rex sells to agencies that do sales and rentals under one roof, and Rex PM is pitched as the half that keeps both teams in step with Rex CRM. That suits an agency that wants one vendor for both.
Request pricing, not a price
Starter and Professional both say Request pricing; Enterprise says Talk to group sales. You reach a number after an enquiry, a discovery session and a bespoke demo, so comparing it with what you pay today takes a sales cycle.
Sold as the partner of Rex CRM
Rex describes Rex PM as integrated with Rex CRM to keep sales and property management aligned. If your sales team ever wants a different CRM, the rent roll's system is caught up in that decision.
Modules listed apart from the plan
Data Imports, Financial Add-ons for trust and agent accounting, Additional Support and Marketing Credits sit under Add-Ons and Optional Modules on Rex's plans page, each part of the quote rather than a published line.
One product for three countries
Rex PM is sold in Australia, New Zealand and the UK, and its page talks about the UK Renters' Rights Bill. Your notice periods and bond rules are whatever the shared product decides to build.
Workflows you shape inside their limits
Task templates and custom processes are a selling point, and they are real. A question that falls outside them, like which landlords take the most repair chasing for the fees they pay, may still end up in a spreadsheet.
Moving in is a service. Moving out is on you.
Rex offers a dedicated onboarding specialist and migration support to bring agencies in. When you want your landlords, properties and tenancies somewhere else, you ask Rex what your account can export.
What your property managers get
A rent roll system that answers in plain English
Rent owing
Who is behind, and the step the law expects next
One question lists every tenancy behind on rent with the amount, how long it has been in working days and in calendar days, the date money last came in, every notice already served and the next legal step.
- check Working days and calendar days side by side, since the tenancy law counts both
- check A gap in the notice trail shown today, not discovered at the tribunal
- check Tenants who slip behind again and again picked out from the payment dates
- check The rent owing letter drafted from the record and left for a person to check and send
Rules
Your tenancy law, written as sentences you can read
Each compliance check is a plain sentence with the section of the Act beside it. The free version ships the New Zealand rules; we set your version to your state's law and your agency's own standards.
- check Entry notice for a routine inspection checked before it is booked
- check Bonds lodged late or above the legal limit found before the tenant raises it
- check Healthy homes items tracked property by property with a date and the evidence
- check A house rule stricter than the law added in one sentence, with no feature request
Properties
Inspections and repairs sorted by what is holding them up
Routine inspections measured against your own cycle. Maintenance grouped by whether it waits on a landlord's approval, a tradesperson, or an invoice.
- check Inspections past your cycle, and any booked with too little notice
- check Urgent repairs first, then anything a landlord has left unanswered for a week, landlord named
- check Jobs approved but never sent to a trade, and finished jobs never invoiced
- check A branded inspection report written room by room from the findings
Ownership
One system that belongs to the agency
Your rent roll sits in a database with your agency's name on it, apart from whichever sales CRM you choose. A new landlord is more records, not a new proposal.
- check Landlord summaries, inspection reports and rent owing letters in your own colours
- check Read-only pages for the week ahead and the whole portfolio, nothing to log in to
- check Which tenancies sit furthest under the market rent on file, and which reviews are open now

Switching
How to switch from Rex PM
The move involves exporting the records your account allows, mapping Rex PM’s columns to the new database, checking the import, then running both systems side by side before you switch.
- 1
Export your records
Ask Rex what export your account provides for landlords, properties and tenancies, and check whether you can include the history you want to bring across. Rex’s export options are not confirmed here, so check with Rex and export what your account allows. Decide which history matters for the move, rather than assuming every record will transfer automatically.
- 2
Load a test run
Have the exported records loaded into Property Management for Claude Code. It reads a different system’s layout, so Rex’s columns need mapping before they fit. Start with the test run, which lists every record before anything is saved. Enterprise DNA can map the columns when it builds your version, or you can ask Claude Code to do it.
- 3
Review the import flags
Read the test run’s list of records before saving anything. Check that landlords, properties and tenancies have been matched to the right fields, and look closely at any records or details the import flags. Fix mapping issues and decide what to do about missing or unclear information, then run the import when the result makes sense to you.
- 4
Run both side by side
Keep Rex PM running while you use the new system for a short period. Compare the records and routine work you rely on, such as arrears, inspections due and open maintenance. Check that your team can find the information it needs and that the results agree with the records you trust. Keep trust accounting in the system that already handles it.
- 5
Switch off Rex PM
Once you have checked the records and are comfortable with the new system for property management, plan the changeover and stop using Rex PM for that work. Keep the system that holds your trust accounting in place, since the new system does not receipt money, pay landlords or hold an auditor’s ledger. Your sales team can keep using Rex CRM if it needs it.
Where the real effort goes
The main work is usually mapping Rex PM’s columns to the new system and deciding which history to bring across. Your own fields, stages and rules may also need to be matched or adjusted, and flagged records need review. Enterprise DNA handles the mapping and setup when you have them build and run your version.

Questions
Instead of Rex PM, answered
Our sales team uses Rex CRM. Can they keep it? expand_more
Yes. This replaces the property management side only. Your sales agents can stay on Rex CRM or anything else. When we build your version we can pass the records both sides need, like a new landlord coming from a sales appraisal, so the two teams still see the same people.
Rex will not show a price. How do we compare? expand_more
Bring the Rex proposal or your current invoice to the call, with a picture of what your property managers do each week. We set it beside what your own version would take to build and run. If staying on Rex makes more sense for your agency, we will tell you.
What happens to trust accounting? expand_more
It stays where it is. The free version keeps a rent record so it can work out who is behind, but it never receipts money, pays a landlord or holds a ledger your auditor signs off. Keep Rex's trust accounting, or the trust system you prefer, for the money.
How do we get our records out of Rex PM? expand_more
Ask Rex what export your account gives you for landlords, properties and tenancies. The free version reads a different system's layout, so Rex's columns need mapping. Enterprise DNA does that when we build your version, or you ask Claude Code to do it, with a test run that lists every record before anything is saved.
Our property managers like the Rex inspection app. What replaces it? expand_more
The free version has no inspection app, so keep whatever you use on site. It covers everything around the visit: whether it is due, whether the entry notice went out, the findings, the repairs they lead to and the branded report. If your team wants an app with photos and offline mode, Enterprise DNA builds one into your version.
