Compliant rental contracting platform
SignAssist is a property-management platform Daybreak Digital built and scaled for Dutch landlords and property managers. Housing law in the Netherlands sets strict limits on what a landlord may charge and what a contract must contain, and the rules changed repeatedly in recent years. SignAssist turned that moving target into software: a contract is generated from the property data, checked against the current legislation and signed digitally, with alerts whenever something in the portfolio falls out of compliance. More than 4,000 property managers used it, running over 12,500 rent-point assessments across more than 1 million square metres of property.
What we built
One platform for the whole rental dossier, from the first rent calculation to a signed contract and ongoing compliance.
-
Rent-point calculation
The Dutch points system decides the maximum legal rent for a home. SignAssist calculates the points from the property data and keeps the calculation current with each change in the law.
-
Rent checked against regulation
Every proposed rent is tested against the Affordable Rent Act, so a landlord never signs a contract that a rent tribunal would overturn.
-
Automatic contract generation
Residential, room, office and retail contracts are generated from templates that follow the latest legislation, with the landlord's own clauses added.
-
Digital signing
Contracts are sent, signed and stored in the platform, with a complete record of who signed what and when.
-
Compliance alerts
The platform flags missing energy labels, expiring documents, deviations from regulation and approaching deadlines before they become a problem.
-
Integrations and imports
Property data flows in from the land registry, from brokerage systems (NVM brainbay and TIARA) and from spreadsheet imports, so nothing is typed twice.
Compliance as a product
Regulation is usually a cost. For SignAssist's users it became the reason to open the software every day.
-
4,000+ property managers
Landlords and managers of homes, student rooms, offices and shops across the Netherlands.

12,500+ rent assessments

Audit-ready contracts

Automatically pulling in my property data makes creating rent-point assessments much faster.
