How it works

Three steps to sending

1

Enter

Enter the property, units, tenants and receipts. The tool guides you step by step, with hints for every item.

2

Check

You immediately see who pays how much, whether everything is allocated and where values are missing. With previous-year comparison and advance payment proposal.

3

Send

One PDF per tenant with a QR payment slip, plus Excel for your accounts. Electricity and ancillary costs in one letter if you wish.

Features

Everything a clean statement needs

Built by a landlord who uses it for his own apartments.

Heating

Every heating type

Heat pump, oil, gas, pellets, wood chips, district heating. With matching items, receipt checklist and fuel stock.

Tenant change

Degree days and interim readings

Heating costs by heating degree days, other costs by days. Vacancy is borne by the landlord.

Electricity

Electricity statement per apartment by meter, also within a self-consumption community with solar power.

Common areas

Laundry room and own work

Coin meter, common water and a work report for caretaking, garden and winter service.

Commercial

Residential, office or industrial

You choose the property type and the tool adapts the steps and typical costs. Weighted areas and VAT for commercial premises.

Ready to pay

Swiss QR Code with a reference per tenant. For credits, the request for the IBAN is added automatically.

Tools

Calculate reference rate, inflation and cost increases under VMWG. Generate an ancillary costs clause for the lease.

Safety

Legal check and explanation sheet

A traffic light checks the key points before sending. An explanation sheet for tenants and a cost comparison over several years.

Made for private landlords who prepare their statements themselves.

FAQ

Good to know

Where is my data stored?

Only in your browser on your device. We have no server for your statements and see no data. Under «Law and data» you can save a backup file at any time, which also lets you move the data to another device.

What counts as a property?

A building with its own ancillary cost statement, however many apartments or offices it has. The statement periods of later years belong to the same property and cost nothing extra.

I live in one of the apartments myself. Is that possible?

Yes. Enter your apartment as «own use». Your share is calculated and shown as the landlord's share, so the tenants pay exactly their part.

Can I also bill offices and commercial premises?

Yes. For each unit you choose the use and, if needed, an area factor, for example 0.5 for storage. If you have opted for VAT, the tool adds it for these units.

How do I get the full version?

Tap «Full version» in the tool or buy it here under Pricing. Pay with TWINT or card. Stripe then takes you back to the tool and the preview becomes the full version immediately. Your data is kept.

Is this legal advice?

No. The tool is a calculation aid based on the provisions of the CO and VMWG. Your lease and receipts are decisive. If in doubt, your homeowners' association or a specialist can help.

Try it with the example.

A three-apartment building with heat pump, tenant change and electricity meters is already filled in.
