This month, we talked about winterization during our morning coffee here in my part of Virginia. We are fortunate not to get too many winter storms, but as a result, sometimes we are caught off-guard. The session focused on prepping for big freezes or storms. It included practical tips like turning the heat on in your vacants, checking for out-of-town residents to ensure their heat is on, setting faucets to drip, and opening your cabinet doors. T ...

Quick question for senior apartment sites:

For residents that have mobility issues and have the motorized carts, do you allow them to park it in the lobby area as long as it is out of the way if they are leaving for doctors appointments? Or do you make them figure out different ways to come down to the common area to leave?

I have a resident that has a cart that they use to get from the 3rd floor to the main lobby floor and leaves it there. It has...

Guest Insider I would take this as an opportunity to make cute little “cart parking” with signs and yellow/white lines on the flooring. Maybe even a power option so they can plug it in while they leave. Happy Residents, Happy Life! 🥰

Soooo, maybe they’re going for the Disney Mickey Mouse Effect… Or perhaps they had a positive budget variance on maintenance supplies…

Guest Insider Just thinking, why do owners charge more if a person chooses mo-to-mo? They're not losing any money. If there's extra paid to be mo-to-mo, maybe it should be split with the staff.

Most people think communication is about what they are saying, however exceptional communication isn't about what you said, it is about what the other person heard. Every single individual involved in a maintenance request should know what is happening at every step in the process and can get engaged if they need to. Should the resident call to ask what the status of their request, no matter who picks up the phone, that employee should know. Per ...

One tug of a loose thread and the whole thing could come unraveled, which aptly frames the challenges many communities face when it comes to towing. Regardless of how many people complain about their reserved spot being inhabited by someone else, the data says the issue is usually caused by only a few people. Yes, you read that right. Just a few of your residents can impact overall resident satisfaction. On average, 1.7% of your residents are res ...

The choice is yours. Start by looking at your organization and see what fits. Do you know what kind of impact you want to have? Are you looking to understand your co-workers better? Are you looking to start a small group within your company? What are ...

Well, i've seen a lot of interesting and "entertaining" correspondence in my 23 years but there's always a first..
First time I have seen a previous resident copy the "Attorney General UN International Court of Justice of Human Rights" on a move out charge dispute email.
I wonder if they will be hearing her case soon. 🤦‍♂️
