The crew behind the scenes at MiCasa have been working incredibly hard recently; today we’re chuffed to announce a major update to MiCasa, including something brand new called MiCasa Tasks.
MiCasa Tasks is a powerful tool that allows the strata council and property manager to create tasks and assign them to a person or company for successful completion. Read more…
Re-invent Your Strata, Tip #12: Why Residents Don’t Care.
We’re all guilty of whining from time to time. I whine about Canada’s position on the environment (what’s with Bill C-38 anyway?), I moan about the rain, I rant about reality TV, and don’t get me started on media ownership. Anyway, my point is we all whine, and for the most part I’m okay with it. Read more…

Re-invent Your Strata, Tip #4: Don’t Forget Renters
We’ve all been renters at some stage, so why are some owners hell-bent on excluding renters from strata communities?

Jeremey’s suggestion, taken from his own experience using MiCasa, prompted us to re-assess how residential groups access information in the real world. The outcome of our re-assessment is an almost complete overhaul of the MiCasa User Permissions system. Read more…
I recently had an opportunity to spend time chatting with Norm, a lovely bloke living in Victoria, BC, and brand new to using MiCasa in his building. Norm was excited about getting started with MiCasa, but was understandably concerned about his security online.
Norm asked some very important questions about MiCasa security, so I thought I’d share this information with the MiCasa community here. Read more…
I was having a beer with my cousin the other night and he asked me “so what’s the long-term plan for MiCasa?” My response [below**] earned me a cheeky smile, followed by another question, “so you guys are changing the way every building operates?”.
My single word answer, “Yep”.
This conversation is not an unusual one. We chat with people all the time about the direction of MiCasa and what we’re trying to achieve. The fact is that we are motivated by the idea that every residential building can operate better by using MiCasa to open up communication and get people talking. Read more…
