Designed for the UAE's leading property organization, this super-app will serve With over a 25,000 properties, all types of users will be engaging with the app daily. The project's aim was to integrate diverse functionalities - property listings, transaction management, and communication channels - into one streamlined application, simplifying and accelerating access to essential real estate services for tenants, owners, and brokers.
Owner
The owner's experience streamlines property management, consolidates financials, and connects to the community, offering a comprehensive toolkit for efficient real estate oversight and enhanced tenant interaction.
Tenant
The tenant's experiences simplifies initial onboarding, rent payment, maintenance requests, and amenity bookings, while keeping users engaged with community news and events, ensuring a convenient and connected living experience.

Building a real-estate super-app
This project was initiated with a clear vision: to consolidate six disparate applications into a singular, super-app platform. This ambitious endeavor aimed to cater to the primary users - tenants and property owners - by providing a comprehensive, all-in-one digital experience.
The key deliverables for this project was the creation of mid-fidelity wireframes and interactive prototypes. These wireframes and prototypes were critical in visualizing the user experience for each user, ensuring that the design was both functional and intuitive. The process involved detailed mapping of user stories for tenants, owners, and brokers, laying the groundwork for a user-centered design approach.
Inspired by the success of global super-apps like Gojek and Careem, the client’s ambition was to not just build any super-app but to tailor it specifically to the UAE's real estate market. This approach promised a revolutionary change in how property management and real estate transactions are conducted in the region, setting a new standard for customer experience in the real-estate tech industry.
Payments
This feature in the app is tailored for both tenants and owners, allowing them to manage and complete transactions with ease. Tenants can make rent payments directly within the app, which securely processes and confirms transactions. Owners can fulfill installment payments and track past transactions.

Drawing inspiration from global super-apps, the team at Renascence aimed to create an experience that would not only meet but exceed the expectations of a tech-savvy user base in one of the world's most dynamic real estate markets.

The diverse needs of the app's users required a flexible approach to design and functionality. Regular interaction with the client and agile response to feedback were instrumental in refining the app, ensuring that it not only served its intended purpose but also provided an exemplary user experience.
