Owner Resale

TOPS [ONE] Version 5.3.0.2

Description

When a home is being sold to a new homeowner, a resale should be performed. 

This function moves the current property owner to a previous owner, prompting you to enter the name of the new owner or select the new owner name from a list of existing owners. TOPS [ONE] will keep track of both the new owner and the previous owner. The entire owner payment history can stay with the new owner, stay with the previous owner, or can be split between owners during the resale process.

This article will give you step by step instructions on how to perform an owner resale.

A resale cannot be deleted or undone. Double-check the owners and properties before performing this action!

You will be redirected to the property page with the new owner as the Primary Owner. 

15. (Optional) Once the property page loads, you will have the option to send the new homeowner a message right after the resale is complete.  This message is only temporary and will disappear once you leave the page. 

However, a message to the homeowner can always be created through the Action Menu on this page.
