At hallo theo, we are revolutionizing the traditional residential property management industry. The global residential real estate market boasts a value of over $270 trillion, but still operates like in the 90s with outdated, non-digital, and inefficient practices employed by management companies.

That’s why we are building a cutting-edge platform that reimagines the role of traditional property managers, empowering them with digital tools and technology. Through our innovative software, data analytics, and artificial intelligence, we’re enhancing the property management experience by leaps and bounds—making it ten times better than what you’ve come to expect.
