For this virtual workshop, HQN is teaming up with OptusApp to introduce a new mobile app specifically designed to help social housing tenants pay their rent, book a repair and communicate directly with their landlord.

    Unlike a tenant portal, the OptusApp doesn’t need a laptop or PC to work properly. It is compatible with all modern smart phones (Apple and Android) and puts residents in control of their relationship with their social housing provider through the touch of a button.

    The app enables repairs to be reported and appointments booked quickly; rent payments can be made without fuss and users are able to access their full rent history. Personal and group messaging is also available so communication between landlord and tenant has never been easier.

    The OptusApp is also system agnostic and integrates with all housing management systems. It is available immediately for testing by any social housing landlord.
