Our History
Once upon a time (in early 2017), a tech-fwd and people-fwd marriage occurred. Bazinga Technologies acquired a small property management company that was interested in being bold in a sea of same-old.
Two companies interested in disrupting and improving strata management in Vancouver.
We love what we do and communication is the cornerstore of any lasting relationship.

Meet Joseph, our Founder and CEO!
With two decades of experience as an entrepreneur, Joseph founded bazinga! in 2012, the world’s first cloud-based platform designed to improve the experience of community-living in cities. In 2017, his passion for improving community living naturally progressed into the vision behind Tribe Management Inc.
Having lived in multi-family communities, Joseph realized that there was a need for a tool to help Strata Councils and residents communicate efficiently, consolidate documents, and more. This was the beginning to a bold improvement in strata management – setting the foundation to revolutionize the industry.
Outside of work, Joseph loves giving back to his community. As a seasoned soccer player, he has been coaching junior and premier league teams for the past 25 years. On the weekends, you can find him smoking up meat and making homemade rotisserie with his wife, and 3 kids.

Head of Security
Hi, I’m Enzo. I’m a six-year-old purebred Doberman. My favourite treat is roast beef ribs. I can knock on doors if I need to get someone’s attention. I hate agility class. My trick is to lay on the ground and make myself as heavy as possible when it’s time to go to class. I’m really just a lapdog in a big dog body. Oh ya, and my owner, John Berzy, is VP of Technology.
