Other LOFT Living Features
Of course, online payment is just one of the many great features LOFT living offers. We encourage you to explore the app and learn more about the various options, especially as we add more down the line.
A Few of LOFT Living’s Current Features:
- You can submit non-emergency work orders (please remember that for any emergency work order you should always call the main office – even after hours).
- You can contact the office with questions/concerns.
- You can update your own contact information, emergency contact, vehicle, and pet info.
As we grow and expand, we will be adding more options on LOFT living. You will be able to see informational notices, complete packet documents, and upload documents we have requested.
There will always be offline options for every action available within the app – but LOFT living can offer you a single online location to simplify and streamline where you receive and submit information if you choose to utilize it.
