Or Chapter 3: Finalize High-Rise Lease Agreements.

Introduction: 

The Transaction Management App allows users to finalize, sign, act, and manage Agreements (Lease, Purchase, and Sale) in a very efficient way.


Bildhive’s Transaction Management App makes the process more efficient because it:

  • Integrates with the rest of the Bildhive Apps, allowing the sales agent to pull information automatically from the other applications to populate contracts

  • Integrates with DocuSign for Real Estate SKU to easily route, sign, and securely store all agreements

  • Complies with the most stringent global security standards

  • Generates agreements that are lawful and admissible in a court of law


!!  The Transaction Management App, Condo Unit Configurator, and Contract Configurator, all work together.

  • In the Condo Unit Configurator, you enter all the Details about your condo unit (including floorplans and add-ons). 

  • The Contract Configurator allows you to configure all the Contract fields. 

  • The Transaction Management App pulls in Information about the Unit and the Contract that contains all the fields. Then you Fill the Contract with the transaction information. Finally, you Send the contract to all parties for their Approval, Signature, or Review.
