Everything between listing and ledger
The tools property managers pay seven subscriptions for. In one place.
Tenants pay by MTN MoMo or Airtel Money straight to your account. VillaCaps sends the reminders, records every payment, and shows you collected vs outstanding at a glance.
Applications come in with the tenant's details in one tap. Screen, accept, and send a lease the tenant signs on their phone. No printing, no courier runs.
Vacant units publish to villacaps.com/homes, where verified-seekers browse by neighborhood. Every listing is reviewed before it goes live.
Tenants report issues from their portal, you see them on your dashboard, and nothing gets lost in a WhatsApp thread anymore.
A clean ledger per unit: payments, invoices, statements and exportable records. Ready for your accountant or the bank.
Property managers and staff get their own logins and roles, so delegation doesn't mean sharing passwords.

Questions landlords ask
›How much does VillaCaps cost?
Creating an account, adding your properties, and listing vacant units is free. Any fees for payment collection are shown clearly in the app before you confirm. No surprises.
›How do tenants pay rent?
Tenants pay with MTN MoMo or Airtel Money directly to the landlord's account, or by recorded bank transfer. Every payment lands in your ledger with a receipt, and overdue rent triggers automatic reminders.
›Do my tenants need to install an app?
No. Tenants get a simple web portal that works on any phone browser. They can pay, view their lease, and report maintenance without installing anything.
›Which areas do you cover?
We're live across Kigali: Kimihurura, Kacyiru, Kiyovu, Nyarutarama, Remera, Gacuriro and more. And support landlords anywhere in Rwanda and East Africa.
›Can you manage commercial buildings too?
Yes. VillaCaps handles office spaces, shops and storage units. Including monthly invoicing for business tenants. See our commercial property page for details.
›How long does setup take?
About two minutes to add a building and its units. Listing a unit or inviting a tenant takes about the same. Most landlords are collecting rent the same day they sign up.
