Workflow stages

1 · Receive & log

Certified letter scanned at front desk · portal request auto-logs · email forwarded → /requests intake. Clock starts at receipt.

2 · Identify & verify

Confirm requester is owner of record (cross-checks AppFolio). Anonymous or third-party requires owner signature on auth.

3 · Assemble

Pulls native files from Drive/AppFolio per request scope. Assembled bundle is preview-only until redaction step.

4 · Redact

Auto-redactor masks SSNs, bank account numbers, owner medical/disability info, security plans. Manager spot-checks before release.

5 · Deliver & log

Watermarked PDF (requester name + date) delivered via portal. Audit-log entry hashes the bundle. Cost recovery invoiced if > threshold.

Automation

Statutory clock alerts

Day 5 reminder to assigned manager. Day 8 escalation to ops director. Day 9 hard alert to president. Day 10 = hand-off to AGF for compliance letter.

Owner-of-record verification

AppFolio nightly sync confirms requester is current titled owner. Tenant requests rejected with template citing §718.111(12) "owner" requirement.

AGF safety net

Requests flagged "litigious context" (active dispute, attorney letterhead, etc.) get optional CC to AGF before delivery. ~3% of requests trigger this.

Audit-log hashing

Every delivered bundle is SHA-256 hashed → entered in the hash-chained audit log. Six months later we can prove exactly what we sent and when.

Redaction QA pair

Manager reviews redactor output side-by-side with original. Sign-off captured. Required before deliver. Average QA time: 4 minutes per bundle.

DBPR defense bundle

If owner files §718.111(12) complaint, system auto-builds defense binder: original letter, intake log, statutory clock, hash chain, delivered bundle. AGF takes from there.
