Pluss AI

Pluss AI drafts news and events

Pluss AI drafts news posts, event descriptions and updates, and finds an image for each one. A staff member can start a news post from a photo of an event.

Content rules keep each draft on brand and on tone. Nothing goes live until a staff member approves it.

Resales

Land lease resales in Pluss

Pluss runs each resale in one record, from notice to sell to handover. Your team sees who owns each stage and when each task is due. The homeowner and their family follow the same stages in the app.

7 days

After a notice to sell, to tell the homeowner whether you offer seller services and the site rent a new owner will pay.

21 days

The buyer needs the disclosure documents at least 21 days before the site agreement, or 7 days with a signed waiver.

7 days

Cooling off on the new site agreement, from the last signature.

28 days

Cooling off if the disclosure documents arrive late.

Periods under Queensland law. Sources: Queensland Government, steps to selling a manufactured home, Business Queensland, sales transaction responsibilities, QMHOA, new rules from 7 June 2026.

Clocks and tasks

Record the notice to sell the day it arrives, and Pluss starts the reply clock. The disclosure and cooling off clocks sit on the same record.

Each of the eight stages has an owner, tasks and due dates.

Disclosure pack

Your team sends the disclosure pack by email and text. The event log shows when the buyer opened it.

The homeowner's family can see where the sale is up to in the app.

Pluss doesn't make an operator compliant. It keeps the record your team needs to show what was done, and when.
