Although historically Agency Pilot was developed as a commercial property system, we have developed specific tools and tailored the product and terminology to allow residential sales and lettings teams to use the software. Now Agency Pilot is used by both commercial and residential agents across the UK.
Unfortunately Agency Pilot does not have any accounting functionality for the management of property information. However we do have facilities to output financial information to accounting products such as Sage.
If your practice deals with both commercial and residential then Agency Pilot provides the ideal platform to share information across different teams. A shared Company Relationship Management (CRM) system allows you to cross-sell and up-sell more effectively across your organisation.
Key features include:

On the lettings side of the business, any interactions and jobs can be recorded to ensure contractors are informed at an early stage and the Landlord and Tenant are kept informed on a regular basis.
