The rent setting process is complex and time consuming for every social landlord. Various factors like government legislation, property types, resident services, and location affect what can be charged making the process complicated and protracted.

The BRIKHousing: Rent Setting_ module cuts through the administrative overhead of the rent setting process. The solution simplifies this process, reducing the time needed from a week to just a day. It allows organisations to configure the system to meet their needs, streamlining rent setting and saving time and effort by automating the resident letter generation process.

Built for deployment on existing or new Microsoft Dynamics 365 Customer Engagement or Power Apps implementations the product leverages all the flexibility and capability of the Microsoft platform whilst providing a robust and featured Rent Setting module.
