Are you ready to launch Property Meld?
Look forward to the future where property management companies use technology to improve their day-to-day operations — leaving behind manual processes.
Next Steps for a Seamless Launch:
1. Send out Communication to all of your Melders
Our Pre-launch email templates are the start of your communication with your residents, vendors, and owners. With that said, you'll want to make sure to let your Melders know about your maintenance upgrade during your launch.

If you have a large list of vendors that need to be invited, let your Customer Success Manager know and we will import your list right away!
- Better communication: Direct communication between residents
- Hassle-free scheduling: Eliminate the back and forth and missed appointments
- Simplified Invoicing: Upload invoices on the spot once a service issue is complete, resulting in faster payment
3. Disable Your Current Maintenance Submission Process:
It is important to disable your current maintenance submission process before inviting residents. This will allow you to focus on your improved process and wind down all old service issues. Please review the applicable articles below for direction:

- The ability to choose between 3 different notification access levels for your owners, outlined here.
- Optional Owner Hub access, which provides:
- Owners with live updates on all maintenance items, whether you’re working on preventative repairs, turnovers, or renter-submitted items.
- A sleek interface that is enjoyable to use and is key to managing maintenance at the lowest possible cost.
- Top-tier communication tools that allow owners to engage with you anytime they need, giving them insight into how you are caring for their assets.
