Law firm's online property 'Tracker' gets off to a flying start


8 June 2009


‘Tracker’, Browne Jacobson’s new online property management system, has been hailed a success after the firm signed up three clients within weeks of its official launch.

‘Tracker’ has been in development for more than 18 months and has been successfully rolled out to Nottingham Fire and Rescue Service, Nottingham City Primary Care Trust and Nottinghamshire County Teaching Primary Care Trust, enabling them to implement an integrated approach to managing their property estate.

The system, which has been designed to cater for all types of freehold and leasehold properties, gives property managers 24-hour access to key information for their property assets through a secure login from their desktop.

As well as being a comprehensive archiving system for title deeds and important property documents a team of experienced property lawyers from Browne Jacobson will also extract key information from client’s property deeds giving managers immediate access to this important data.

Users also receive automatic electronic reminders of significant dates including lease expiry and rent reviews.

Mark Aldrich, Partner at Browne Jacobson, said :

“Property managers want information about their properties that is easy to access, cost effective and timely.

“Tracker removes many of the risks associated with managing a portfolio, large or small, by delivering all the crucial property information quickly and effectively.

“It gives users all the information they need at their fingertips, helping them to accurately budget ahead and best manage many of the risks associated with managing property assets. They can plan for forthcoming lease expiries, options to break their lease and rent reviews which if missed can leave landlords and tenants legally and financially exposed.

“Tracker is a highly intuitive system and requires no training and no additional software. We are already seeing the added value provided by the system which delivers significant savings in time and cost.”
