What this call should accomplish

Capture the issue and access details before a person assigns the work.

  • Captures the property, unit, issue, severity, access, and contact details.

  • Alerts the maintenance path without assigning a vendor or promising an ETA.

  • Separates prospect, resident, owner, and vendor calls.

  • Records the caller, property, timing, and requested next step.

Questions worth asking

Ask about the caller, property, and requested next step without deciding eligibility or availability.

  • 1

    What name and number should the property team use for follow-up?

  • 2

    Which property and unit are involved?

  • 3

    What is happening, and what access details should the property team know?

  • 4

    Are you a buyer, seller, renter, resident, owner, or vendor?

  • Anything outside the maintenance script goes to the property team.

Questions owners ask

Does an alert assign a vendor or promise an ETA?+

No. It sends the issue and access details to the property team. A person owns assignment and response.

Can it decide whether a buyer or renter qualifies?+

No. It can ask approved questions, but people own eligibility, availability, Fair Housing, lending, and property decisions.
