A well house.
A well people.
He Whare Ora is a property and tenant management platform with Māori housing principles embedded in its design — built for social housing, private landlords and commercial portfolios who want one strategic view of their properties, tenants and obligations.
Free 12-month plan available for kaupapa Māori housing programmes.
Why we built this
Property software that treats homes as more than assets
Most property tools were built for transactions. He Whare Ora was built for the relationships that turn a house into a home — without sacrificing the rigour modern owners and operators need.
What you get
Everything to run a portfolio in one place
Six core modules that replace the spreadsheets, inboxes and sticky notes operators currently rely on.
Property portfolio
Track every unit, address, region and tenancy in one organised view — from a single home to thousands of doors.
Maintenance workflow
Log jobs, dispatch contractors, track urgency and keep tenants informed without losing anything in email threads.
Compliance at a glance
Healthy Homes and beyond — see what's compliant, due soon or overdue across the portfolio in one dashboard.
Tenant portal
Tenants can request repairs, see updates and feel respected — designed mobile-first with manaakitanga in mind.
Budgets & reporting
Watch spend by category, see what's tracking and report cleanly to boards, trustees or owners.
Alerts & notifications
The right person hears about the right thing at the right time — across email and in-app.
Who it's for
Built for the people who keep New Zealand housed
Iwi, hapū & community housing providers
Run papakāinga, kaumātua housing or community programmes with tools that respect tikanga and the people you serve.
Property managers & private landlords
From a handful of rentals to large portfolios — replace spreadsheets, inboxes and missed compliance dates with one strategic view.
Government & social housing operators
Multi-region oversight, audit-ready reporting and tenant outcomes that hold up to public scrutiny.
Principles in the design
Māori housing values, woven through every screen
These aren't decoration. They shape how tenants are addressed, how maintenance is prioritised, how compliance is communicated and how data about whānau is protected.
Manaakitanga
Care, hospitality and respect for the people in the whare.
Kaitiakitanga
Guardianship of the land, the buildings and the future they hold.
Whanaungatanga
Strong relationships between owners, operators, tenants and community.
