Ready to simplify your accommodation operations?
Built for renting by the room, not the whole tenancy
One platform, shaped around the kind of shared housing you run.
Boarding houses
Per-room rent, bed-level occupancy and a tenancy timeline for boarding house operators.
Flatting & room rentals
Flats and room rentals with per-room rent, bonds and bed-level occupancy.
Student accommodation
Student houses and rooms managed through the tenancy cycle.
Co-living
Co-living with private rooms, shared spaces and per-room rent.
Residents & records
Run every property at the room and bed level
Organise each property into rooms and beds, keep one record for every resident with their documents, deposit and full history, and track rent, part-payments and overdue balances without rebuilding a spreadsheet each month. Occupancy stays accurate, so a room is never double-booked.
For the whole category, see property management software for shared housing, or read what a property management system is.
Per-resident utility billing
Rent and utilities on one bill, allocated per resident
Each resident gets one bill covering their rent and their share of metered electricity, with part-payments tracked as installments and a true running balance so arrears never build up unnoticed. PulseHub meters each room and splits the usage between residents by their move-in dates, and water, gas and other recurring charges can ride on the same bill.
Whole portfolio
Manage your whole New Zealand portfolio from one account
Run one property or many. Switch between them from the dashboard, or open All Properties to compare occupancy, collections, outstanding dues, costs and net profit side by side. Give managers access to only the properties they run.

Residents, without an app
Complaints, maintenance and reminders in one place
Residents raise maintenance requests and complaints by scanning a code, with no account or app to install, and you track each one to resolution with a full history against the room. Payment reminders go out automatically, and residents can leave private feedback through a one-time link.

Frequently asked questions
What kinds of New Zealand accommodation does PulseHub suit?
Operations that rent by the room or the bed: boarding houses, flats, student accommodation and co-living. It manages each property at the room and bed level, with a separate record and bill for every resident.
Is it suitable for boarding houses?
Yes. PulseHub manages per-room rent, bed-level occupancy, bonds and resident records for boarding house operators, and keeps a tenancy timeline for each resident. It is operational software, not legal advice, so check your obligations under the Residential Tenancies Act.
Does it keep a tenancy timeline for each resident?
Yes. Every resident has a timeline of their stay: rent and charges, part-payments, the bond held, notices and move-out, all in one place.
Can it allocate rent and utilities per resident?
Yes. PulseHub meters electricity and splits it between residents by their move-in dates, and adds recurring charges such as water and gas, so each resident gets one bill covering their share.
Is pricing in New Zealand dollars?
Your PulseHub subscription is billed in USD, with a 14-day free trial and no card required. Inside the app you bill your own residents in your local currency.
Can I try it before subscribing?
Yes. Start a 14-day free trial with no card required, or book a demo first.
