STOP! THIEF!
It has been since last July since I had to make THAT call or see THAT look in my tenant's eyes. Honestly, I hate it. It is not the surly customers, the pulling weeds in the rain, sweeping in sweltering heat, or even watching 8 units succumb to this months 80+ mile an hour winds. It is the thieves and what they do to…

Suggestion to change an aspect of the program
So as a company all of our sites are moving our day the late fee hits back by 1 day. No big deal I figured so I went into corporate control and made the change for all sites. Now as a common sense aspect I would think that it would effect everyone going forward. I can even see how the ones that just hit that day would get…

Phone sales and converting a potential customer
What is the best way to convert a customer who thought your special was the 1st month free? I have overheard my assistant explain that it's our 2nd month that is free and only on select units, to that the customer hangs up. I don't usually have this problem, because I start talking up the customer and the facility and get…

Did I dream this report up?
Years ago, I remember seeing a report that showed not only the tenant's total payments during his rental period but it broke it down into a total of how much he paid in fees v. rent. I seem to remember seeing this when someone moved out. Sadly, I will confess, I remember making fun of how silly some tenants were after…

a)HTML or RTS b) is email open tracking possible?
Currently using RTS as attachement, but debating going to embedded HTML. Pros/Cons? Do I really need to consider Mobile/desktop or various browsers? Any other considerations. I feel our attached file PDF of the sitelink form isn't really a modern approach. Secondarily, has anyone successfully inserted/incorporated an open…

Unable to View E-sign Document Content when Signing
Has anyone else had an issue being able to view the content of a returned E-sign "Awaiting Manager's Signature"? This started happening last week and I tried running a Live Update to fix this issue but it is still continuing. I haven't had any tenants say anything so I think it is only happening on this end. It allows me…

Do not rent to Tenant in Sitelink
I'm curious if you can make someone that you have rented to before a "do not rent" person in Sitelink? We had to evict someone and I want to make sure that years from now once they're long forgotten that we don't rent to them again, especially if we had a new employee, someone covering, etc. Maybe if it recognized their ID…

Last Note - Collection Call
It would be nice if, when a collection letter/text was sent out, it simultaneously flagged that event as a "Collection Call" if we wanted it so. (Unless it is available somewhere and I am missing it). Seems like it could be an easy addition to the Past Due Events as an Option to have a box for "Add as a Collection Call."…

Move Out Refund with Credit on Account
Tenant vacated 2/28/19. They had a credit of $75.48 that had previously been applied to March rent of $170.00. It doesn't change the figures if I click the Waive all fees dated after move out box. Or the Prorate rent box. Or both. Any suggestions. I also tried changing move out date to 3/1. Thanks.
