A family lake house with a covered porch

For families

One place every owner can check instead of texting you.

Repairs, appliance details, warranties, and who to call — kept where every co-owner and caretaker can find it, in any season.

Start free See how it works

No credit card. Nothing to install.

What it keeps track of Repairs and projects Appliances and manuals Warranties Codes and shutoffs

The family place runs on one person's memory and a long text thread.

How it usually goes

Everyone asks the same questions Where's the water shutoff. What's the gate code. Who plowed last winter.
Warranties are in a drawer up there Which is no help when you're calling from home.
Two owners hire two plumbers For the same leak, in the same month.

With Place Keeper

The answers live at the house Codes, shutoff photos, and how-to notes attached to the property record.
Every repair is on one timeline So the next owner up sees what already happened this year.
Manuals stay with the appliance Model numbers and warranty PDFs on the same page as the repair history.

Three steps. That's all of it.

1

Send it in

Forward the plumber's invoice. Text a photo of the water heater label before you drive home.

2

Say what it's about

Ask it the way you'd ask a neighbor.

Yes — Hollis Plumbing came April 27 and replaced the heater May 3.

Stored with the property record, visible to the four owners.

“Is the dishwasher still under warranty?”

Yes, through March 2027 — receipt and warranty PDF attached.

“Who do we call for the driveway?”

Keene Grading, plowed Jan 2025 — number and rate on file.

Appliance and utility records

Specs and past repairs on hand before you call a contractor.

Recurring house prep

Seasonal and turnover tasks so nothing gets missed between stays.

Vendor notes and contacts

Who to call, and what they already did last time.

Questions families ask us

Can each owner have their own login? Yes — invite every owner and your caretaker, with view-only access for anyone who just needs to look.
What about the renters or the cleaner? Give them view-only access to the how-to notes without opening up invoices or contacts.
Do we need someone technical to run it? No. Setting up the first building takes an afternoon, and daily use is forwarding an email or sending a text.
What does it cost? One flat price for the whole organization — [confirm current price]. No per-person charges.

Start with the house. Add the outbuildings later.
