My Home Assist offers an end-to-end accounting module that makes it easier for Resident Welfare Associations to handle their funds. The app also allows residents to pay a variety of expenses, including water, maintenance, and other utility payments.
Management of Visitors:
My Home Assist’s technology improves security by guaranteeing that a visitor approval procedure is run by the inhabitants, who are now in charge of deciding who is permitted on the property.
Security Alert:
Residents may use the My Home Assist app to quickly notify their security staff in the event of an emergency.

Clubhouse Management & Amenities Booking:
This function allows the management committee of a Residents Welfare Association to ensure that only residents and their guests are allowed in the clubhouse, understand usage patterns, and even provide a booking tool for specific amenities.

The management committee may use My Home Assist Communication Management to publish opinion surveys, invite residents to meetings, and address resident complaints by directing them to the appropriate individual. They can also initiate discussions, submit ideas, or request feedback.
