**What I need to build:**
- This is a system to manage common property (e.g. apartment buildings) expenses and accounting.
- When someone lives in an apartment building, besides the utility bills and taxes corresponding to each apt, there are multiple other bills and taxes that apply to the building as a whole. All the neighbours share elevator maintenance, doorman salaries, electric bills, water and general maintenance more or less equally.
- This system aims to simplify the accounting, appropriation and control of those accounts and to provide some tools around the common space.
**Technical specs:**
- Language: PHP 4.x - 5.x
- Database: MySql 4.x
- Framework: CakePHP, Symfony, Custom made, your choice
- Separate HTML from PHP code, templating system/framework
- Frontend: CSS, Javascript client-side validation, AJAX optional
- Design style: [login to view URL] (List styles, tabs, font sizes, etc)
- Language: English, i18n compliant using __() and _e() functions (as Wordpress does) for all system output. *.mo and *.po files must be provided for localization.
- Source code will be edited to enhance it once installed, full access to all programming and libraries is required. OO coding and one class per file is preferred and proper code documentation will be highly appreciated.
