Keep resident maintenance requests in one conversation

Residents can describe an issue from their apartment account. The manager can find the request in the property inbox, respond and update its status as work moves forward.

Who it’s for

For property managers handling repairs, noise or billing questions, and for residents who want to follow up on a request they have already sent.

How it works

  1. Open a request from the resident account

    In Requests, choose a category, enter a subject and describe the issue. Send it to the management team for the linked property.

  2. Find the request in the manager panel

    Search the inbox or filter it by status. Open the matching conversation to check the apartment and the resident’s description.

  3. Reply and update the status

    Send a reply when the resident needs an update. Use an internal note for information intended only for management, then change the status when the issue moves forward.

An example in practice

A broken entrance intercom

A resident sends a maintenance request about the intercom. Management replies in the same conversation, notes the planned visit internally and marks the request resolved once the issue is addressed.

Keep the issue, replies and status together

A request links the resident’s subject and category to their apartment. The manager’s inbox shows the unit and current status, and a conversation keeps the messages together. The manager can assign the request to themselves, send a reply to the resident or add an internal note for management.

Common questions

Can a resident add a photograph or document?

An open request can include a JPEG, PNG or PDF of up to 5 MiB per file. Open the conversation to add the attachment.

Who can read the request?

The resident who opened it and authorized managers can read the conversation. An owner’s access to apartment finances does not give them access to another person’s request.

Will a resident see management’s internal notes?

Internal notes are visible to authorized managers. Choose the reply option to send a message to the resident.
