Problem
German homeowner associations (WEGs) face high costs from traditional property management companies, typically €25-45 per unit per month, while self-management without proper tools leads to disorganized records, missed deadlines, and legal risks. Many communities also struggle when their external property manager terminates the contract unexpectedly, leaving them without professional support.
Solution
dotega provides a digital self-management platform that combines automated administrative workflows with personal support from a certified property manager. The platform handles bookkeeping, payment reconciliation, deadline tracking, and document management, while each WEG is assigned a fixed IHK-certified property manager available via email, chat, or phone with guaranteed response times. Bank accounts are directly connected, allowing automatic matching of homeowner payments and invoices to relevant transactions. The platform includes legally reviewed templates for meeting invitations, resolutions, and protocols, plus an exclusive AXA liability insurance policy for self-managed communities. All data is stored on servers in Germany, DSGVO-compliant and encrypted, with full export capability if the community later switches back to traditional management.
Target Audience
Primary customers are German homeowner associations (WEGs) with 2-60+ units, particularly communities seeking to reduce management costs, those whose external property manager has terminated the contract, and owner-managed communities wanting professional support and legal security.
