The market growth is attributed to the increasing demand for SaaS software for property maintenance in the commercial and residential sectors.
The real estate industry is heavily data-driven and mostly focused on property management and making critical decisions. Companies present in the market are heavily dependent on property management software, especially SaaS software. Adoption of this type of software is increasing, as these companies are data-driven and managing all the data offline is not possible.
SaaS software allows company employees to access the data from anywhere and anytime, allowing companies to make decisions without any time constraints. Moreover, this type of software allows companies to deal with multiple clients at the same time, using its cloud-based services.
Companies integrate multi-vendor platforms into their existing system using SaaS software to cater to various customers at the same time.
The COVID-19 pandemic hampered the global real estate property management software market, owing to the imposition of lockdowns across the globe. Demand for commercial and residential spaces decreased and schools and offices were closed, as governments across the globe imposed strict regulations on social distancing. This resulted in a decrease in the demand and usage of property management software.
Post pandemic, the demand for property management software grew, as all schools and commercial spaces reopened and companies went back to work-from-office mode, thereby boosting the market revenue.

SaaS with cloud-based solutions helps organizations streamline operations by automating all the work. Companies in the real estate industry are focusing on adopting cloud-based SaaS software to deal with multiple clients and manage all property deals.
Lack of awareness regarding optimal software solutions hampers the global market. In underdeveloped and some part of developing nations, most of the real estate operations and deals still take place through the offline network.
Real estate owners and companies present in small countries have not come up with the necessary solutions that aids in expanding their business. This lack of awareness hinders the global market by losing potential revenue for the market.
High risk associated with investing in the rapidly growing real estate industry in developing nations impedes the market growth. Real estate brokers approach local developers, due to the lack of funds. This leads to various issues, such as delays in building sites. This majorly affects the adoption of real estate management software.
Growing investment activities in commercial and residential spaces is expected to create opportunities in the market during the projected period. The global e-commerce sector is growing at a rapid pace and companies in this space are focusing on heavily investing in logistics and warehouses to rebuild their supply chain, which was disrupted during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Moreover, post-pandemic, global organizations are focusing on investing in office spaces to expand their businesses. This is expected to boost the demand for property management software during the projection period.
