Property ManagementAfter-Hours Emergency Triage4HighProperty Manager$ implied

Property managers lack a standardized system to triage after-hours tenant calls, leading to inconsistent emergency classification, false alarms, and potential burnout of on-call staff.

Existing solutions rely on ad-hoc judgment or static lists, causing disputes and missed emergencies; small teams lack manpower to handle non-urgent calls overnight.
