Can Odoo handle apartment / unit-level inventory?

Yes — units are tracked as products with attributes (floor, area, configuration, view) and status (available, blocked, sold, registered). Sales reps see live availability across projects; bookings move units to 'blocked' for a configurable hold period; sales finalize the status to 'sold' with payment-plan generation.

Does Odoo handle commercial lease management?

Yes — lease abstracts with rent schedules, escalation clauses, CAM pools, security deposits, and renewal terms. Annual escalations auto-apply on the configured anniversary date; CAM reconciliations generate per tenant per the agreed schedule (annual, semi-annual, etc.).

Can Odoo manage multiple SPVs and group reporting?

Yes — multi-company multi-currency is native. Each SPV runs as its own legal entity with a shared chart of accounts. Inter-SPV transactions (loan, equity, fee transfers) handled cleanly. Consolidated financials, lender-reporting packs, and per-SPV waterfalls run in real time.

How does Odoo handle construction project costing?

Each project is an analytic account with budget vs. actual tracking. Vendor invoices, milestone billing, sub-contractor payments, and capitalization workflows feed the project P&L. Project cost reports break down by category (materials, labor, sub-contractor, soft costs) with variance to budget.

Does Odoo integrate with our title-registration software?

We've integrated with Indian state-level title-registration systems (eKshetram, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu) and similar systems elsewhere. Integration depth depends on the registry's API quality; some are full two-way, some are export-only with manual upload back.

Can tenants pay rent online?

Yes — tenant portal includes online payment via integrated gateways (Razorpay, Stripe). Auto-reconciliation against rent invoices; receipts emailed automatically; collection dashboard for property management team.

Implementation timeline for real estate?

Developer with 1–3 active projects: 12–16 weeks. Commercial leasing operator with 50+ tenants: 14–18 weeks. Multi-SPV holding company: 16–22 weeks. Combined developer + leasing + property management: 18–24 weeks. Construction-project-cost scope adds 2–4 weeks.

Customer payment plans drift from contracts	Payment-schedule templates per project with linked invoicing. Auto-reminders for upcoming installments; collection dashboard for finance.

Multi-SPV accounting consolidation takes the entire month-end	Each SPV runs as an Odoo company with shared chart of accounts. Inter-SPV transactions handled cleanly; consolidated reports run in real time.
Tenant maintenance requests are lost in email threads	Tenant portal for maintenance requests; vendor dispatch from Odoo; cost tracking against property and tenant; resolution timelines visible.

Compliance & regulatory

Regulatory regimes that apply to real estate operators, and what each requires of the ERP.
Standard	What it requires
RERA (India)	Registered projects must report construction progress, escrow utilisation and buyer allotments to the state authority. Project accounting in Odoo tracks collections against the escrow requirement rather than against a single bank balance.
Ind AS 115 / IFRS 15 revenue recognition	Revenue on a property sale is recognised against performance obligations, not against cash received. Milestone-based recognition runs from the contract in Odoo, so recognised revenue and collections stay separately reportable.
TDS on property transactions (India)	Buyers deduct tax at source on qualifying property purchases and the deduction must reconcile to the sale record. Deduction and certificate tracking sit on the same contract as the receipt.
GST on under-construction property	Under-construction sales attract GST while completed sales do not, and the treatment turns on the completion certificate date. Odoo applies the correct treatment per unit based on that date.
