Buildings Overview

Buildings are part of a property location. Buildings contain units, which can be called units, apartments, etc.

Using the Building features included in this system, you set up Buildings, and then associate Units with the Buildings and use that association to track cost, price, and value for apartments. When you track these things, it provides you with information that you can use for cost comparisons with other properties and to assign fair market value rent to your units.

ClosedEffect of Units on Buildings

The system maintains a list of the individual Buildings that are associated with a Property. When further associations are established for the Buildings—for example, Units are associated with a Building—the association affects your ability to delete the Building.

So, if Units A, B, C, and D are associated with Building 100, then Building 100 cannot be deleted. The Building's association with the Units would have to be removed before Building 100 could be deleted.
