Grænseparken Keeps Residents in the Loop with SMS and Email
We’ve all been there: an important notice about a water shutoff gets buried under a pile of spam emails and sales flyers, leaving everyone in the building without water—and without a clue as to why.
Fortunately, Grænseparken’s board took a smarter approach. With Anyhoa, they can send essential updates directly to residents’ phones via SMS or email, ensuring smooth and reliable communication. Paul explains:
“One of the features I really appreciate is the ability to send messages to residents, including SMS functions.” (Psst! You can read more about the Messaging system here.)
Whether it’s an announcement about the next general assembly or a surprise inspection by the property management company, Anyhoa ensures everyone gets the message. This results in fewer “I didn’t know” situations and more peace of mind for residents.
What’s more, all communication is saved within the system, so there’s no need to dig through old emails to find critical information. The platform even allows for targeted messaging—perfect for sending updates only to relevant residents. For example, no need to bother the third-floor residents with issues specific to the ground floor. Paul and the Grænseparken board find this functionality incredibly convenient, and so will you.
Benefits of the SMS Function:
- Send messages via SMS or email quickly and easily.
- Keep all residents informed about essential updates.
- Target specific groups or send messages to the entire community.
- Track sent messages and their delivery history.
Book Shared Facilities – From the Party Tent to EV Chargers
Managing shared facilities like party tents or laundry rooms can quickly become chaotic without a proper system. Residents might miss out on slots or waste time checking availability. Grænseparken solved this problem with Anyhoa’s intuitive booking module. Paul shares:
“It’s also the use of our shared facilities that has become easier. For instance, we can go in and reserve the party tent if a resident needs it or book EV chargers.”
With an online booking system, residents can log in to reserve shared facilities without waiting in line or contacting the board. Whether it’s the community hall for an event or the laundry room for fresh linens, the booking calendar clearly shows availability, and users receive a confirmation for their reservations.
Benefits of the Booking Module:
- Effortlessly book shared facilities like event spaces or EV chargers.
- Prevent double bookings with an organized calendar system.
- Set rules for facility usage to ensure fairness for all residents.
Save Time on Sales – Let Buyers Access Documents Themselves
Housing cooperatives like Grænseparken often experience high demand for properties. However, compiling and sharing necessary documents during property sales can be a hassle. With Anyhoa, Grænseparken’s board has a digital document archive where buyers can directly download critical files, such as bylaws and meeting minutes.
Paul explains:
“Anyhoa centralizes our important documents so that residents can access them, and prospective buyers can easily find the documents they need when speaking with their bank.”
This streamlined process eliminates long email threads and waiting for board approvals. Buyers can access all necessary materials in one place, saving everyone time and effort. The system also creates a professional impression, showing buyers that the housing cooperative is well-organized and efficient.
Benefits of Online Document Management:
- Provide buyers with quick, easy access to essential documents.
- Save the board time by reducing back-and-forth emails.
- Allow buyers to download what they need and present it to their bank.
- Create a professional image with a well-structured document archive.
