IT for the office, the properties, and the people in between.
Property managers and real estate teams run on shared drives, vendor portals, and a handful of office computers spread across multiple sites. We handle the IT and security so the team can focus on tenants, owners, and deals — not on whose copy of the document is current.
Property Management and Real Estate IT Services for Hawaii Operators
HI Tech Hui delivers property management and real estate IT services to Hawaii residential and commercial operators, HOAs, vacation-rental managers, and real estate brokerages. Engagements cover Yardi, AppFolio, Buildium, and Skyline portfolios, plus the MLS/dotloop/zipForm tooling brokerage teams rely on. We harden identity to stop wire-fraud impersonation, lock down tenant and owner data, and pair Microsoft 365 governance with 24/7 SOC coverage for the after-hours phishing and BEC patterns that target Hawaii property professionals.
What we usually see when we walk in
There’s a main office, a couple of site offices, and a few property managers who work mostly from their cars. The shared drive grew by accretion — it has tenant files, owner files, AOAO meeting minutes, vendor contracts, and someone’s vacation photos. Email is the system of record. The property management software vendor handles the platform but not the laptops, not the routers, and not whatever happens when a phishing email lands. We come in, get the file storage and Microsoft 365 under control, lock down email and identity, and run it so things stop falling through the cracks.
What we cover
- Shared file storage — SharePoint and OneDrive structured by property, owner, and team, with real permissions and version history
- Microsoft 365 — mail, MFA, Teams, conditional access, and license cleanup
- Identity & remote access — secure remote access for property managers in the field, with MFA and device standards
- Property management software coordination — AppFolio, Yardi, Buildium, RealPage, Entrata, and similar platforms
- Cameras & access systems — we own the network and account-management side; your physical security vendor owns the install
- Vendor portals — insurance, banking, escrow, and AOAO board portals managed through identity and access controls
- Cybersecurity — email security against closing and vendor-payment wire fraud, endpoint security, phishing training, and 24/7 SOC monitoring
- Backups — immutable cloud backup of Microsoft 365 and shared drives, with quarterly restore tests
Who we work with
Residential property management companies, AOAO and HOA management firms, commercial real estate brokerages, condo and timeshare operations, multi-site vacation rental and lodging offices, and real estate investment groups with several properties. Most have a main office plus one or more site offices, a handful of remote staff, and tenant or resident data they’re responsible for.
Why a Hawaii team matters
Hawaii AOAO law, local lender expectations, and inter-island work all have their own quirks. We know the islands, we know the vendor ecosystem, and we’ve been doing this since 2014. When something breaks at a site office on the windward side or out in Kihei, we have the people and the gear to handle it.
