Why use the urgent information feature?

Most housing associations have experienced the stress of sharing important updates at short notice. Many end up putting up a notice and hoping someone sees it in time. It’s inefficient and creates uncertainty. With Anyhoa, you can make sure every resident gets the message—whether it’s about a burst pipe, a sudden power outage, or a canceled workday.

Integrated with internal messaging

The urgent info feature is built on Anyhoa’s internal messaging system. This means residents receive messages directly in their inbox—and the communication can be linked to posts, news updates, or galleries. Everything happens within the same platform, so your association doesn’t have to rely on social media or external tools.

When is the urgent info feature helpful?

Water shutdown in the building – If a plumber needs to shut off water in a stairwell, the board can send an SMS to all affected residents with the timing and expected duration.

Unexpected power outage – In case of a sudden outage, the board can inform residents about the issue and expected resolution time.

Canceled workday – If it suddenly starts to rain and a planned workday has to be canceled, residents can be notified in advance.

Security alerts – If there has been a break-in or suspicious activity in a shared area, residents can be quickly alerted to stay vigilant.

Here’s why communication is key
