The Problem
Residents and on-site staff don't decide when maintenance issues happen. Calls hit voicemail at 9 PM, on Saturday morning, during lunch — and the work order never gets opened in ResMan.
When a person scribbles notes from a voicemail and types them into ResMan later, half the details are missing — unit number, access instructions, severity, photos. Techs roll trucks blind.
A real leak, a no-heat call in January, a gas smell — these need the on-call tech now, not a ResMan ticket that sits until morning. Most intake workflows can't tell the difference.
Once a ticket is in ResMan, somebody still has to call the HVAC vendor, the plumber, the locksmith — confirm availability, get an ETA, and update the resident. That work falls back on the leasing or maintenance team.
How Frontdesk Works

AI Transcript
“Hi! I’d love to tour the 2-bedroom at Maple Heights. Any availability this Saturday?”
Frontdesk AI
“Yes! The 2BR at Maple Heights is $2,450/mo with a Feb 1 move-in. Saturday 11am or 2pm works for tours. Shall I book one?”
Frontdesk picks up every maintenance call in under a second, asks the right diagnostic questions, captures photos via SMS, and decides emergency vs schedule on the call.
Looking for a 2BR around $2,400, move-in mid-February. Do you allow pets?
We have a 2BR at $2,450/mo available Feb 15. Cats and dogs under 50 lbs welcome. What’s your move-in date?
Captured
Frontdesk writes the work order into ResMan the moment the call ends — priority set, category tagged, photos attached, full transcript in the notes. Property Meld, AppFolio, Yardi, RealPage, Entrata, Buildium, ResMan — all supported.
More capabilities
For categories you've outsourced — HVAC, plumbing, pest, appliances, locks — Frontdesk calls the assigned vendor, confirms a window, and updates ResMan and the resident with the ETA.
When Frontdesk hears the words that matter — leak, fire, gas, no heat, lockout, flooding — it skips the queue and reaches the on-call tech or vendor immediately, then logs the incident in ResMan.
