Notes from the build.

What shipped, what licensees told us, and where the system is headed.

  1. ComplianceOperations and compliance, every page in the demoEvery page, dialog and write of the first three phases now works in the demo agency. What that covers, area by area, and what comes after it.
  2. PlatformWhy the demo moved into the browserIn two days the demo agency moved twice: first into a branch inside every service, then out of the server altogether. What we got wrong the first time, and why the second answer holds.
  3. ProductThe property is the fileWhy Briesa files the transaction under the property, and every other system does it the other way round.
  4. TrustReconciled by the month, not by the miracleWhat we learned building sales and rentals trust accounting to the NSW rules, and why the audit pack should be an export.

Why New South Wales first

· 1 min read

The obligations are state law. Doing a second state badly helps nobody, so we are doing one properly.

The most common question we get is which states we cover, and the honest answer is one. New South Wales is built and live; everywhere else is next, one at a time.

That is not caution for its own sake. Agency obligations are state law, and they are not a skin over a shared model — the registers differ, the trust rules differ, the disclosure differs, and the deadlines differ. A system that is vague about which state it is in is worse than no system, because it will be confidently wrong at the exact moment somebody asks.

So Briesa knows it is a NSW system. The registers are the seven the Act asks for, the accreditations are the licence classes that actually gate signing, and the trust accounting is built to the rules an auditor here will test it against.

If you are not in New South Wales, we are not ready for you yet, and we would rather say so than take your money. Leave your details and we will tell you when yours is next.

One file per property, for its whole life.
