A few things to know

Clear answers.
Better conversations.

Is this for prospects or existing tenants?

This page covers conversations with existing tenants. For inquiries about available rentals, explore the AI Leasing Inbox.

Can I edit an AI reply before sending?

Yes. AI drafting places a suggested reply in the composer for you to review and edit before you choose Send.

Which message channels are supported?

Individual conversations appear in the tenant portal. Building updates to selected tenants can be delivered by email and recorded in their portal threads.

Is AI reply drafting included on every plan?

AI reply drafting is available on paid landlord plans. Compare the current plans.

How do I prepare a renewal?

Review the lease in the Ending soon list, discuss terms, then prepare an addendum, a new agreement or an uploaded lease before updating the tenancy.

Does this sample send messages or change a lease?

No. The sample uses fictional tenants and keeps your edits on this page; open your account to send messages or update a real lease.

Are selected-tenant announcements and group conversations the same?

No. Selected-tenant announcements create separate portal conversations and queue email for each selected recipient; replies stay individual. The current Messages workspace also offers a separate group-conversation control when your access permits it. Review its named members before creating or sending: shared members can read messages and attachments, and membership is visible. Keep personal payment, screening, medical or other private matters in the appropriate individual channel.

Can I reuse a quick reply without sending it immediately?

Yes. In the current Messages workspace, a saved quick reply inserts text into the composer. Review the renter, rental, dates and wording, then edit before choosing Send. A saved template or AI suggestion is a draft, not delivery or approval of a rental action. Follow current messaging instructions and inspect the returned result before retrying.

What does Download this thread provide?

The current individual-thread control opens a printable copy of the conversation as stored, including deletion labels and available attachment links. Check the correct recipient, rental, dates and actual contents, and keep the copy private. It does not establish that every outside communication was captured or that a recipient received, read or agreed to a message. Preserve any underlying files and use the separate agreement or notice process where required.

Good renting starts with a conversation.

Keep everyone on the same page.
