Tax is an afterthought.
GST, PST and HST bolted on as a line item means every mixed residential and commercial portfolio reconciles tax by hand.
Propra is property management software for Canada, set up for Alberta's rules.
One ledger from rent roll to owner statements, with GST, PST and HST, PAD and Interac e-Transfer, and CPA 005 bank files built in. For portfolios of 500 to 5,000+ doors in Alberta that want to add doors without adding headcount.
GST, PST and HST bolted on as a line item means every mixed residential and commercial portfolio reconciles tax by hand.
Rent by e-Transfer lands in a bank feed nobody matches; owner payouts need a bank file the software cannot produce.
Interest, holding and return rules differ by province, and the software knows none of them.
Handled in the core accounting, not as a report. Residential, commercial and mixed portfolios, including GST on commercial rent.
Tenants pay by pre-authorized debit or e-Transfer; Autopay collects rent and condo fees; the AI reads the e-Transfer notification and posts it.
Owner and vendor payouts as EFT files Canadian banks accept, or through Autopay with no file at all.
Security deposit statements and interest by province; custom lease forms with e-signing and renewals.
Alberta
Alberta sets a new security deposit interest rate each year. Propra carries the rate history and accrues each deposit at the right rate for each year, compounded annually, so a 2016 move-in gets a correct statement at move-out in 2026.
The rate table is maintained by Propra, not typed in per deposit. Interest posts to the ledger as its own line, so the trust reconciliation ties out.
GST applies in Alberta. Residential rent is exempt from GST and HST across Canada; commercial rent is taxable.
Propra applies the right tax per charge, residential, commercial or mixed, so month-end tax is a report, not a reconciliation.
Up to one month's rent, held in trust, with interest at the provincially set rate. No separate last month's rent.
A new Alberta lease pre-fills one month's rent as the security deposit, and interest accrues at the Alberta rate for each year it is held. The full rules by province are in the help centre.
Residential tenancy disputes in Alberta go to the Residential Tenancy Dispute Resolution Service (RTDRS).
Every notice, inspection and ledger entry sits on the lease, so a hearing package is an export, not a hunt.
One place for operations and the books
One ledger from rent roll to owner statements and GST. Trust and operating funds kept separate, every transaction tied to the property, unit and activity.
Maintenance requests, vendor jobs and move-in and move-out inspections live next to the money they cost.
Owners see live numbers in their portal. Tenants pay and send requests in theirs.
Reconciles the bank, explains a variance, reads the bill or the e-Transfer notification and posts it to the ledger.
Scale without adding headcount
Teams at 500 doors and beyond hit the same wall: the next hundred doors means the next hire. Propra takes the repeat work (matching, coding, reconciling, statements) so the same team carries a bigger book.
