After-hours tenant requests that nobody has to triage at 7am
Messages arrive all evening and overnight through email, the resident portal, and a shared phone line. By morning someone spends the first hour of the day sorting which are emergencies, which are questions the lease already answers, and which are duplicates of yesterday's ticket.
What gets built
- Chat and email agent grounded in your leases, house rules, and FAQ content
- Urgency classification using your own emergency definitions
- Ticket creation in the PMS with unit, resident, and description attached
- Duplicate detection against open tickets for the same unit
- Overnight digest so the morning queue is already sorted
Where a person stays in the loop
- Anything matching an emergency rule is escalated immediately, not answered
- Repeat contacts from the same resident within a window are flagged for a person
- Rent, legal, and eviction topics are always routed to staff
What we measure against your baseline
- First-response time on inbound tenant messages
- Share of messages resolved without staff involvement
- Morning triage time before the first resident call
Systems involved
- Property management system
- Shared inbox
- SMS gateway
- On-call rota
