- Include clear details: what is happening, where, when it started, and whether it is getting worse.
- Attach photos when possible to speed up triage and reduce back-and-forth.
- If there is active flooding, sparks, smoke, or a safety risk: treat it as urgent and contact your property manager immediately.
Messages and Announcements
- Use Messages to keep communication organized and in one place.
- Read announcements carefully, especially building rules, strata notices, and scheduled maintenance updates.
Documents
