Quarter builds the agenda, schedules the AGM, counts votes, takes minutes and records decisions.

Quarter turns your shower thought into an official resolution that your neighbours can vote on.

Collecting (& chasing) the levies

Quarter tracks what needs to be done and how to get it done alongside live LTMF projections to help avoid special levies.

You might be wondering...

Is there a minimum number of units?

No. Quarter works for Body Corporates of any size, from a 3-unit townhouse to a 600-unit tower. The price per unit falls as the building grows: $15 per unit per month for the first 50 units, $11 for the next 50, and $8 for every unit after that.

What's in Run on Quarter?

Everything a body corporate manager does. Governance: meetings, minutes, compliance and insurance. Finance: budgets, levies, trust accounting and the long-term maintenance fund. Every owner gets a login, and the first 30 days are free.

We still have a body corporate manager. Can we use Quarter?

Yes, while you give notice. Send us the management agreement and Quarter will tell you what ending it takes: the notice, the dates and the clauses they come from. The first 30 days are free.

How do you know what body corporate managers charge?

From published 2026 New Zealand fee guides, and Australian managers' own guides for the extras, because no New Zealand source puts a number on them. They are ranges, not quotes, and every estimate on this page shows the cheap end as well as the dear one. Your own budget is the real number, so put yours into the calculator.

Are there any lock-in contracts?

No. Month to month. Cancel any time and your records hand over at no charge, which is not true of every contract you'll compare this against.
