Online Portal

August 28, 2019

Our partnership with cloud-based management software is a vital tool to optimizing communication between renters, owners, and our operations. Appfolios built-in messaging and emailing tools make collaboration and staying informed easier on us all! 

The Owner and Resident Portal’s key features are:
  • 24/7 access
  • Secure online payments 
  • Instant access to payment history
  • Submit maintenance and architectural review requests
  • Receive documents shared from us
  • Send us texts

The boards and owners of our associations and properties have access to the same features as stated above. However, they have access to a few different tools within the portal. Appfolio’s mobile capabilities mean that you have on-demand access to important documents at any time. A few key features are: 
  • Access to monthly summaries 
  • Shared inspection reports 
  • Year-end tax statements
  • With a click of a button, you can approve or deny bids, ACC forms, invoices and more! 

** Appfolio no longer supports Internet Explorer. If you are having trouble please use a different browser. Either Google Chrome or Firefox **
