What Are Joint Properties?

A joint property is a rental property owned by two clients together. Instead of entering the same transactions twice, one client (the "Sharer") enters all data once, and it automatically appears in both accounts.


Key Terms

Sharer: The client who enters transactions for the property.

Sharee: The co-owner who receives the data automatically.


Before You Start

Both clients must already be set up in ApariPro. Add any missing clients via Add a new client on your Agent Dashboard.


The Setup (7 Steps)

Step 1: Decide Roles

Choose which client is the Sharer (enters data) and which is the Sharee (receives data).

Step 2: Impersonate the Sharer

  • Go to Agent Dashboard

  • Find the Sharer

  • Select the three-dot menu → Impersonate

Step 3: Create Landlord Business

  • Select Profile & SettingsBusiness Sources

  • Create a new Landlord business if one doesn't exist

Step 4: Create Joint Property

  • In Business Sources, click Add new UK Property

  • Enter property details

  • Toggle Joint property to Yes

  • Enter Sharer's ownership % (e.g., 50% if equal)

  • Select Confirm

Step 5: Share with Sharee

  • Select the three-dot menu on the property

  • Select Share

  • Enter Sharee's email address

  • Important: Enter the date property sharing starts (use 6 April 2024 if unsure)

  • Click Confirm

Step 6: Sharee Accepts (If Your Client)

  • Exit Sharer's account (click Exit view)

  • Impersonate the Sharee client

  • Go to Profile & SettingsBusiness Sources

  • Select the three-dot menu on the invitation

  • Select View invitationAccept Invitation

Step 7: Enter Transactions

All future transactions should go in the Sharer's account only so they reflect correctly in the sharee’s account. 


Critical Points

Email matters – Use correct email for Sharee
Ownership % matters – Enter accurate percentages
Shared date matters – Determines from when the data should be shared by the given % across both clients
Never duplicate – Only enter transactions in Sharer’s account


What They See

Both clients will see the joint property and their share of the income/expenses on their tax returns automatically.
