| dc.description.abstract | The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak was felt
across all real estate management. A slowdown in the
house rental and maintenance management system can
be anticipated, as a result of the lock-down and
limitations in financing with the most severe impact is on
the inability of handling the relationship between the
house owners, tenants, and the handyman. Property
management is a crucial component of being a
landlord, but it is far from straightforward. An
appropriate methodology was carried out by the
researchers to identify all the problems regarding real
state property management through quantitative and
qualitative data gathering procedures such as semistructured
interviews, face-to-face interviews,
questionnaires, and direct observation of the selected
sample. After analysing, the house owner must screen
tenants, collect rental fees, handle complaints, and keep
tenants satisfied, among other things. In this pandemic
situation, tenants faced more difficulties such as
difficulty in finding a better house, paying monthly
payments, paying utility bills, loss of connection with
house owners, and finding the nearest handymen.
Handymen suffered a lot mainly because of the inability
to find works. Researchers’ main aim is to give an
appropriate solution for Sri Lankans to manage house
rental and maintenance. By examining the responses this
investigation shows that a mobile application would be
a better solution than implementing a web application.
Iterative waterfall methodology was used for
implementing this application. The researchers decided
to develop this application using android studio. To
enhance the effectiveness of the system by using 360 VR
photography, Machine learning (ML)-based technologies,
OTP/Fingerprint for User Verification and Geolocation,
and Geo-tagging. | en_US |
