If any one of them are missing, your one-call resolution rate drops significantly. Let's be specific about what the resolution conversation sounds like. The tenant calls, their Bluetooth isn't triggering, and they have a late fee they didn't know about. They're frustrated. Here's what the right response looks like. I've got your account right here. I can see the late fee. That's from last month's payment that processed a few days late. I'm going to clear that as a one-time courtesy since this is the first time it's come up, and I'm opening your gate right now. Give it about 10 seconds, you should be good to go. That's it, under 90 seconds, problem resolved.
