Your whole back office, prepared and double-checked
A single product that you configure to match your professions. Velum reads your tools, prepares the administrative work and recalculates statutory deadlines to flag any discrepancy. Every action reaches you ready to review: you validate, you send.
Three selectable professions, one augmented professional
Turn on the modules you need. Velum covers the entire real-estate back office, in compliance with the Alur and Hoguet Acts.
Building management (syndic)
From the notice of meeting to the pre-sale statement (état daté), Velum prepares the managing agent's day.
- General meetings: notices of meeting, attendance sheets, minutes
- Calls for funds and double-entry accounting
- Alur Act works fund, multi-year plan, collective energy performance certificate (DPE)
Rental management
The full lettings cycle, from the lease to the return of the security deposit.
- Rent notices, rent receipts, automatic IRL index review
- Rent receipts confirmed without access to your bank
- AI-assisted inventories of fixtures (check-in/check-out reports), works management
Sales (real-estate transactions)
A sale file kept in perfect order, from the preliminary agreement to the deed of sale.
- Listing agreements (mandates) in the Hoguet register, valuation on DVF data
- SRU deadlines and conditions precedent monitored
- Complete technical diagnostic file, tracked follow-ups
Three principles, zero nasty surprises
Connect your tools
Your inbox (Gmail, Outlook, IMAP) and your business software: your rental management tool, your sales software, your building management (syndic) platform. Velum observes them in strict read-only mode: nothing is modified, moved or marked as read.
Ghost modeVelum prepares
Every email is classified, every task identified. Velum drafts the replies, generates rent receipts, notices of meeting, listing agreements (mandates) and follow-ups, and reconciles incoming rent against each unit's transfer reference.
AI + business rulesYou validate
Everything goes through a double validation. Velum deposits drafts; you are the one who sends. No irreversible action is taken without a human.
Systematic human validationVelum recalculates the rule. And flags the gap
Velum does more than prepare your work: it recalculates the deadlines and obligations the law imposes, compares them with what your own software holds, and flags any discrepancy. No business software can perform that service on itself: "your tool recorded the wrong cooling-off date" can only come from a third party that redoes the calculation.
Statutory deadlines and terms
Recalculated from the statute, not copied from your tool:
- SRU cooling-off: 10 days, public holidays carried over (art. 642 CPC)
- Mandate duration by type, expiry alerts at 90 and 30 days
- Managing-agent contract: 3 years maximum (Alur Act 18-1)
Mandatory documents
Velum reports a missing document. It never concludes "compliant" about a document it has not seen:
- Missing or expired diagnostics, energy-inefficient homes (Climate Act)
- Expired collective EPC, missing DTG, outdated RNC registration
- Technical diagnostic file: missing items listed
Registers, thresholds and listings
The checks nobody redoes by hand:
- Mandate missing from the Hoguet register, unlawful duration
- Listing without a valid mandate, price inconsistent with the mandate
- Rent cap exceeded, competitive tendering missing
Every gap lands in your portfolio anomalies, together with the article it rests on. Velum corrects nothing in your tool and notifies no third party: you see the gap, you alone decide what follows.
All your tasks, prepared and organised by profession
Here, profession by profession, is what Velum prepares on your behalf. Everything is proposed: you keep the validation.
