Ohmyhome Announces Growth Updates Following Successful Acquisition of Property Management Business Simply Sakal
- Units under management reached 6,746 units, with an Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR) of over $2.7 million (SGD 3.6 million), and additional SaaS revenue streams.
Singapore, Feb. 08, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Ohmyhome Ltd. (NASDAQ:OMH, "Ohmyhome"))), a one-stop-shop property technology platform providing end-to-end property solutions and services to buy, sell, rent, and renovate homes, as well as property management services for condominiums in Singapore, is pleased to announce significant developments and milestones following its acquisition of Simply Sakal Pte. Ltd.
Simply Sakal Pte. Ltd. is now renamed as Ohmyhome Property Management further enhancing the one-stop brand of Ohmyhome.
This strategic transaction has not only expanded Ohmyhome's service offerings to include a non-cyclical recurring revenue stream, but also established a strong position in the condominium property management sector in Singapore with close to 6,800 units under management and an ARR reaching $2.7 million (SGD 3.6 million) on December 31, 2023. The condominiums are across various districts in Singapore with sizes ranging from 10 to over 700 units per project.
The property management business has historically grown its business at 57% CAGR (Compound Annual Growth Rate), achieving revenue of $2.0 million (SGD 2.6 million) in 2022 with 4,648 units under management.
Integration and Potential Synergies
Ohmyhome's suite of services are now fully integrated and accessible in the Simple App, the property management mobile application used by the homeowners and residents of the units managed by Ohmyhome Property Management. In addition to the property management revenue stream to Ohmyhome as a combined entity, there are also significant potential synergies arising from the customers residing in the condominium units.
Simple App with Ohmyhome's Services Integrated
Historically, Ohmyhome has primarily been active in the Housing Development Board (HDB) resale market where home values are around $0.3 to 0.8 million, with average revenue per transaction at around $4,000 at 1% commission. The integration allows Ohmyhome to quickly enter into the private condominium market where home values in Singapore typically range from $1 to 2.5 million and a revenue per transaction that would be 2 to 5 times higher ranging from $10,000 to $25,000. This would result in a lower cost of customer acquisition as compared to other agents as Ohmyhome is now seen in the daily life of the residents of the enclosed condominium communities. Renovation contracts for private condominium renovation ($40,000 - 80,000) are also typically higher than HDB flats ($20,000 - 50,000).

Following the acquisition, Ohmyhome Property Management has relocated its office to merge with Ohmyhome's headquarters at 11 Lor 3 Toa Payoh, Jackson Square Block B #04-17, Proptech Innovation Centre, Singapore 319579. This creates cost synergies through the consolidation of office spaces as well as back-office functions, which streamlines operations and enhances efficiency across both companies.
New Revenue Streams and IoT Integrations
To redefine property management, Ohmyhome Property Management has also introduced Vehicle Management Systems for condominiums as a new Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) revenue source in Q4 2023 through the integration of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions. We believe this new service, focusing on resident and visitor vehicle management on a subscription model, represents a leap forward in enhancing property security and efficiency.

The IoT solutions streamline vehicle entry and exit processes, allowing for pre-registered vehicles to enter and exit the estates freely without the need for human security details. We believe this offers a modern, secure, and seamless experience for both residents and property managers, and leads to savings for the Management Corporation Strata Titles (MCSTs), and further solidifies Ohmyhome Property Management as an industry leader in bringing technology to property management, where the industry is mostly paper-based and manpower intensive. As a technology player in the property management industry, Ohmyhome Property Management has the capability to integrate additional IoT solutions and services beyond its current functionalities to provide more convenience to the residents.
A Property SuperApp and Expected Growth Ahead
This post-acquisition phase marks the beginning of a new era for Ohmyhome, further propelling the growth of the combined company to become a property SuperApp. With a combined portfolio of services and customers, we believe the Company is set to deliver value and service to its clients, and additional growth curves from the ever expanding customer base of homeowners and home seekers.
Rhonda Wong, CEO and Co-founder of Ohmyhome, stated "We are extremely excited about the opportunities ahead of us with the successful integration of our new property management arm headed by a talented and dedicated team of seasoned professionals."
