How to Build a Property Management Portal with Strapi 5 and React
Blog post from Strapi
A comprehensive guide outlines the process of building a property management portal utilizing Strapi 5 as the backend and a React + Vite setup for the frontend, addressing the complexities of managing rental properties beyond traditional spreadsheets and off-the-shelf tools. By implementing a headless CMS, users can define customized data models and leverage a ready-made API, which this tutorial exemplifies by creating a system to model properties and units as related Collection Types. It includes steps to set up a reusable address component, a custom route for available units, and secure API access with public read permissions and API tokens. The guide also details how to build the React frontend, which fetches data from the Strapi REST API and presents property listings with pagination and image handling. This setup allows for unit-level granularity in real estate directories, with additional insights into deploying the project to production and extending functionality with tenant and lease tracking, advanced filtering, and map integration.
