# What's the Best Way to Handle Resident Complaints in a Building?

The best way is to register each complaint as a ticket with unit, category, and description, assign it to someone, and keep the resident informed until the case is closed. On **Jestor**, this runs through a **Service Desk** linked to your units.

Residents complain about noise, leaks, common areas, and many other things. Without a clear process, complaints get lost in chats, and neighbors begin to doubt whether the management listens.

## What informal complaint handling costs

- Complaints repeated because no one answered
- Disputes between neighbors that grow over time
- No record of actions taken for each case
- Managers unaware of patterns in the building

## How complaint tracking works

- Each complaint is a **ticket** with unit, type, and description
- An owner is assigned with a response deadline
- The resident receives updates as the case progresses
- A dashboard shows complaints by type and by month

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Every complaint has a visible owner
- Residents see that their issue is taken seriously
- Patterns indicate where structural fixes are needed
- This scales from one building to many
