Unauthorized Occupant and Roommate Request Checklist for Property Managers

Use this worksheet when a resident asks to add a roommate, reports an unauthorized occupant, asks about long-term guests, mentions a sublet, requests a key/fob for another person, or disputes an occupant-related notice. It helps staff acknowledge the message quickly while routing lease, screening, access, privacy, fair-housing, and legal-sensitive decisions to the right reviewer.

Why this deserves a worksheet

Roommate and occupant questions often combine customer service, privacy, access control, screening, lease terms, and fair-housing-sensitive facts. A rushed AI draft or front-desk answer can accidentally approve a resident, disclose private information, promise a key or gate code, threaten a notice, or create inconsistent treatment. The safe move is to acknowledge, capture the facts, and route the decision through approved policy.

STOP AUTOMATION: do not let AI approve or deny an occupant, interpret the lease, promise screening results, threaten eviction or fees, disclose private resident details, issue access credentials, decide accommodation/caregiver questions, or create legal/fair-housing-sensitive wording. A property manager must verify the source record and approved policy first.

Thanks for the update. I am routing this to [manager/team] so we can review the lease record and approved process. We do not want to guess about approval, access, fees, notices, or next steps until the source record is checked.
