What is Receivables Management?

Receivables management is the process of collecting buyer instalments on time and keeping an accurate picture of what is owed on every unit. For off-plan developers it directly affects escrow funding, construction cash flow and the ability to act on defaults.

What we handle

  • Instalment schedules for every unit
  • Reminders, statements and overdue notices
  • Payment reconciliation with escrow and Oqood
  • Ageing reports and collection forecasts
  • Default identification and escalation
  • Management reporting

How it works

A clear, accountable sequence with one team responsible from start to finish.

  1. Baseline

    We load payment plans and reconcile what has been paid.

  2. Collections cycle

    We run reminders, statements and follow-ups each cycle.

  3. Reconciliation

    We match receipts against escrow and Oqood.

  4. Escalation

    We document defaults and prepare the termination route where needed.

Who it's for

  • Developers with overdue balances building up
  • Finance teams that need reliable ageing reports
  • Projects nearing completion milestones
