Workflow automation

Nightly cross-check

AppFolio CSV ↔ Leon County Property Appraiser API ↔ Sunbiz ↔ FL DOH death index ↔ OFAC. Mismatches surface within 24h.

Title change capture

Recorded deed (transfer, refi, quitclaim) auto-detected within 1 business day. Triggers Unit Transfer workflow + AppFolio update + welcome / farewell sequence as applicable.

LLC beneficial-owner

Per declaration §6.7 (and FL §689.071), LLC owners must disclose beneficial individuals + designated voting member. Form auto-generated on LLC detection.

OFAC + sanctions

Quarterly sweep against OFAC SDN list. Auto-flag for any potential match. Manual review before any financial disbursement to flagged owner.

Decedent capture

Weekly FL DOH death index match. NOLA + records-request hold; AGF coordinates probate workflow with estate counsel. Welcome the heir, not the decedent.

Stale contact

Bounced email + 3 failed SMS + returned mail = stale flag. Re-contact path: certified mail to deed address, public records phone search, neighbor walk if absolutely necessary.

Replaces

The estoppel cert that names the decedent. The NOLA mailed to the ex-spouse who hasn't owned the unit since 2024. The wire disbursement that should have hit OFAC review. The LLC owner whose beneficial owner is unknown 6 years in.
