GuideTeam and contractors

Invite your team and set what they can do

Add a partner, a project manager, or a crew lead, choose their role, and pick the houses and tools each one gets.

Owners and admins

One subscription covers everyone. Invite as many people as you work with; there is no charge per person.

The three roles

RoleSeesGood for
OwnerEverything, on every house. A workspace can have two owners.You and a partner
AdminEverything an owner sees, including money, members, and billing. Can't change or remove an owner.A partner or an office manager you trust with the books
Team MemberOnly the houses you tick, with the tools you leave on. Never the P&L, financing, contacts, or dashboards.A project manager or crew lead

A contractor is not one of these roles. Contractors get their own login that shows only their tasks; see Contractor logins.

Invite someone

  1. Step 1: Open the account menu (your initials) and choose Members.
  2. Step 2: Under Add person, type their Email and pick a Role.
  3. Step 3: For a Team Member, tick at least one house under Properties.
  4. Step 4: Choose Send invite.

They get an email with a Join workspace button. The link works once and lasts seven days. Dana invited her partner Marcus Bell as an Admin and her crew lead Luis Ortega as a Team Member on 1418 Maple Avenue only.

Until they accept, the invite sits under Pending invites. Resend sends a fresh link and the old one stops working. Cancel withdraws it.

Heads upA person can belong to one workspace. If their email is already on another workspace's team, you'll see “That invite couldn't be sent.”

Choose which houses a team member sees

  1. Step 1: On Members, find the person under People.
  2. Step 2: Tick or untick houses under Properties.
  3. Step 3: Choose Save role.

Owners and admins always see every house.

Turn tools on or off for a team member

Each team member has a box headed What they can use with six switches. Each one saves as you tick it.

SwitchCovers
Board and scheduleTasks, the timeline, and schedule templates
Budget and expensesThe budget, expenses, receipts, invoices, bids, and the shopping list
Deal analysisAnalysis, comps, and the walkthrough
Photos and updatesThe photo log and daily updates
DocumentsContracts, permits paperwork, and other files
Change orders, punch, and permitsJob-site paperwork for the rehab

When a switch is off, that tool disappears from the person's menu. If they follow an old link they see “An owner or admin turned this off for you. Ask them to turn it on in Members.”

TipA crew lead who should run the board and take photos, but not see what you paid for the house, needs Deal analysis and Budget and expenses off.

What a team member can never do

  • Open the P&L, Financing, Dashboards, the 1099 report, or Contacts
  • Attach a receipt, pick a vendor on an expense, or import expenses
  • Accept or reject a contractor's invoice
  • Post an update, upload a document, or edit the deal analysis
  • Add a house, invite people, or see billing

They can log an expense, work the board, run the walkthrough, and take photos on their houses.

Change a role or remove someone

  • To change a role, pick the new one on the person's row and choose Save role.
  • To remove someone, choose Remove on their row and confirm. They lose access at once.
  • A workspace always keeps at least one owner, and you can't remove yourself.
