The Owners page, located on the dashboard menu, is where you manage property owners and unit owners within Propra.
Propra supports two different ownership roles in the system:
Property Owners
Unit Owners
Each role has different permissions and visibility within the platform to ensure owners only see the information relevant to them.
Beside the owner’s name in the list, you will see the asset type displayed. An owner will either be a Property Owner or a Unit Owner, never both at the same time.
Check out the Owner Portal Guide and watch the video to understand the Owners Portal
Adding Owners
You can add owners individually by selecting Add Owner.
To create a new owner:
Select Add Owner
Enter the owner information
Save the profile
Once added, the owner can be associated with a property or unit and invited to access their portal.
Importing Owners
You can also import owners in bulk by selecting Import Owners.
To import your owner list:
Select Import Owners
Download the example CSV template
Fill out the template with your owner information
Upload the completed CSV file
Save the import
The provided template must be used for imports to work correctly.
Searching and Filtering Owners
Use the search bar to quickly locate owners by:
Owner name
Property name
You can also:
View deactivated owners
Export your owner list
Sort columns alphabetically using the arrows beside column titles
Filter results using the Filter button
Owners who have successfully created and verified their portal account will display a green verified checkmark beside their name.
Viewing an Owner Profile

The owner will either:
Own the entire property as a Property Owner
Own a specific unit as a Unit Owner
Updating Asset Information

Choose Update Asset
Here you can:
Add owner contract dates
Enter management fees

Once changes are complete, press Save.
Property Owners vs Unit Owners
Property Owners
Property owners are individuals or entities who own an entire property, such as:
Apartment buildings
Rental complexes
Entire managed properties
They are typically involved in higher-level oversight and often require detailed operational and financial reporting.
What Property Owners Can See
Property owners may have access to:
Full maintenance request logs
High-level financial performance
Property-wide documentation
Operational reporting
Unit Owners
Unit owners are individuals who own a specific unit within a larger property. This setup is common in:
Condominiums
Townhomes
Strata properties
Unit owners typically only see information related to their individual unit.
What Unit Owners Can See
Currently, unit owners can access:
Lease and billing information for their unit
Maintenance requests submitted by themselves or their tenants
Maintenance request status summaries
What Unit Owners Cannot See
Unit owners do not currently have access to:
Internal maintenance notes or resolutions
Full property-level documentation
Property-wide financial reporting
This limited visibility helps simplify communication and keeps unit owners focused on information relevant to their unit only.
Contact Tab
The Contact tab displays the owner’s contact information.
To edit contact details:
Select the pencil icon
Update the information
Save your changes
Verified Email Addresses
Once an owner has verified their email address through their portal account, the email address can no longer be edited internally.
Only the owner can change their verified email through their Propra portal.
Requested Contact Updates
If an owner updates their information through their portal, you may receive a notification depending on your notification settings.
When updates are pending review, a yellow information icon will appear for you to confirm the requested changes.
Additional Contacts
You can add additional contacts for an owner profile. These additional contacts are for record keeping purposes only and do not create portal access.
If an owner shares ownership with another person, they can invite them as a shared user directly from their owner portal.
Internal Notes
You can add internal-only notes on the Contact page for administrative purposes.
Documents Tab
The Documents tab allows you to upload and manage owner-related files.
Examples include:
Contracts
Statements
Agreements
Identification documents
Ownership paperwork
Uploading Documents
To upload a document:
Select Upload
Upload the document file
Sharing Documents
To share a document with the primary owner:
Select the three-dot menu
Choose Share
To remove access, select Unshare.
Documents uploaded directly to the owner profile can only be shared with the primary owner.
If a property has multiple owners and you need to share documents with all shared owners, upload the document to the property’s Documents tab instead.
Financial Tab
The Financial tab displays owner accounting details.
To edit financial information:
Select the three-dot menu
Update the information as needed
Within this section you can manage:
Payment details and banking information for payouts
Owner ledger entries
Charges and deposits
Financial history and transactions
You can also search for owner-related entries and select Show Paid to display paid transactions.
Remember, Propra is property management software, and the accounting system is designed around property-level accounting.
Deactivating an Owner
To deactivate an owner:
Select the three-dot menu
Choose Deactivate
Before deactivating an owner, ensure all active accounting has been completed. Deactivating an owner with unfinished accounting activity may cause posting errors or transaction issues.
Inviting Owners to the Portal
You can send owners a welcome email during onboarding by sending an announcement.
When owners are invited to create an account, they must verify their email address before gaining portal access.
The email address used to create their portal account must exactly match the email listed on their contact profile page.
Incorrect Email Used During Signup
If an owner accidentally creates their account using a different email address, they may log in but not see any information.
To fix this:
Add the email address they used for signup to their contact profile
Save the changes
This will link their account to the owner profile automatically.
The owner may need to log out and back in again before the information appears correctly.
Why Different Owner Permissions Exist
Not all owners require the same level of detail or system visibility.
Many Propra clients prefer a simplified experience for unit owners to reduce confusion and keep attention focused on their specific unit and finances.
Propra’s owner permissions are designed to support these operational preferences while maintaining clear communication and secure access to information.
