Collection · Money in

Your paybill. Your money, always.

Rent goes into an account you own: your M-Pesa paybill or your KCB account. Bomleys only sees the payment arrive. We never hold your money, so there is nothing for us to delay or release. Every payment matches its invoice and issues a numbered receipt on its own.

Operations · The rest of the job

Every job after the rent. All in the same books.

A tenant reports a leaking sink. You assign the caretaker or a vendor with a visit window, and the tenant knows when to be home.

03

Leasing

Sign in one flow.

Generate the PDF, e-sign or scan paper, move the tenant in against a condition report, and settle the deposit when they leave.

04

Listings + viewings

Real maps, real landlords.

Verified badge and exact pins. Publish your viewing windows and in-window bookings confirm themselves, no phone tag.

05

Rent + receipts

Bills that bill themselves.

The next invoice goes out three days before rent is due, and a mid-month move-in is only billed for the days stayed. Payments match themselves and every one gets a numbered receipt.

06

Tenant identity

Know who you handed keys to.

Decide which documents your workspace asks for, review them once, and let the tenant reuse them for their next lease.

07

Communication

Reach every tenant at once.

Rent notices, receipts and announcements by email from KES 0.20 a message, tracked to the inbox. WhatsApp is live too, and SMS is next.

08

Reports + control

Books you can hand to an auditor.

Twenty-one live reports, trend charts, a record of every change that no one can edit, roles you define yourself, and your own logo and colours on it all.

  1. DiscoverHunter

    Find a verified home or shop

    Hunters filter by county, ward, neighborhood and type — homes or business space. Only verified-landlord listings surface — no ghost ads.

  2. UnlockHunter

    Free to contact most landlords

    Most listings show the contact, the viewing slots and the apply button for free. The few that need a search pass say so on the listing.

  3. ApplyHunter

    One-tap lease application

    Hunters submit applications without leaving the listing. Landlords review with full ID + history attached.

  4. ReviewLandlord

    Pick the right tenant

    Applications land in one inbox. KYC, ID, prior tenancy notes — all on one card. Approve or decline in a tap.

  5. Move-inTenant

    Lease, signed and stored

    Generate the PDF, e-sign on phone or scan paper, run KYC — everything filed in one flow.

  6. 3 days before rentAuto

    Next month bills itself

    Every tenant gets their rent invoice three days before it is due. Moved in mid-month? The first bill only covers the days they stayed.

  7. Rent dayTenant

    Rent paid straight to the landlord

    M-Pesa, bank transfer or cash. The money goes into the landlord's own paybill, never through us, and the invoice marks itself paid.

  8. LiveTenant

    Part payments, tracked to the shilling

    Pay in instalments across the month. Anything over the invoice becomes credit against the next one, never a refund argument.

  9. Mid-monthTenant

    Log a maintenance request

    Photo, description, urgency. Routes to your landlord or property manager — with audit trail.

  10. QuarterlyLandlord

    Inspections, scheduled and logged

    Book the visit, capture photos + notes, attach to the unit record. Tenants get a heads-up.

  11. MonthlyAgency

    Owner statements ship themselves

    Manage many landlords? Per-owner books, rent rolls, and payout reports generate automatically each month.

  12. OvernightAuto

    Books close on autopilot

    Every night, unpaid invoices are marked overdue and new payments are matched to their invoices, while everyone sleeps.

  13. PaydayAgency

    Staff paid, statutories filed

    Run payroll off the same books: payslips, PAYE, SHIF, NSSF and Housing Levy lines, and M-Pesa payouts on the day.

Looking for a place

The other half of Bomleys is for renters.

Same platform, opposite side of the table. Find a verified home or business space, deal with the landlord directly, and keep your lease, rent and deposit in one place afterwards.

Verified landlords only

Every workspace is identity-checked before a single listing goes live. See something wrong? Report the listing and a person works the case.

Most listings cost you nothing

On most listings you get the contact, the viewing and the application without paying us a shilling. A pass is only needed for the few listings that say so.

Book a viewing, then apply

Pick a slot from the landlord's own availability and in-window bookings confirm on the spot. Apply from the listing itself — no WhatsApp ping-pong, no agent fee.

Everything after the keys

Sign the lease on your phone, pay rent straight to the landlord's own paybill, log a repair and follow your deposit — all from the same portal.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Still curious? Reach out — replies usually inside a business day.

Do you take commission on rent?

No, and we could not if we wanted to. Rent goes from the tenant straight into your own paybill — it never passes through a Bomleys account. We bill your agreed monthly fee and nothing else.

Do I need my own Paybill or till?

Yes, and that is deliberate. Connect your M-Pesa paybill or a KCB account and the money is yours the moment it lands. Recording payments by hand works too, if you collect cash or bank transfers.

What happens if I cancel?

Rent keeps arriving in your paybill, because it was never routed through us. The workspace goes read-only — your leases, receipts and statements stay exportable until you reactivate.

Does Bomleys work for shops, offices and warehouses?

Yes. A building can be all flats, all shops, or a mix of both — every unit carries its own type, rent, lease and invoices on the same ledger. Commercial listings get their own Business space page, so people hunting for a shop or an office find yours without wading through bedsitters.

I am looking for a house or a shop — does it cost me anything?

Browsing, saving and comparing listings is free, always. Most listings are free to act on too: you get the contact, book the viewing and apply without paying us. Only the few listings that say so need a search pass, and the price is on the pricing page.

How do I pay rent, and who holds my money?

You pay the landlord directly — M-Pesa to their own paybill, bank transfer or cash. Bomleys never holds tenant money. The payment matches itself to your invoice, so your balance and history stay right without anyone chasing anyone.

What happens to my deposit?

It is recorded against your lease from day one. When you give notice, the move-out settlement lists every deduction line by line against the condition report taken when you moved in, so the refund figure is arithmetic rather than an argument.

Where is data hosted?

Your records are kept on secure cloud servers in the EU and backed up every day. Photos load from Cloudflare's network, which has servers in Nairobi, so they open fast in Kenya.
