Below we've outlined some common post-purchase stewardship activities and the out-of-the-box method for tracking them in HomeKeeper. 


Interactions and Engagement with Homeowners

Post-Purchase Education

You can track your post-purchase workshops and education as Group Sessions. 

  • Attendees can be registered from their existing Service File, allowing you to track all of the courses the homeowner has registered for, and their attendance. 

See our step-by-step instructions in these knowledge articles: 

  • Enter and Update a Group Session or Workshop
  • Register Attendees for a Group Session or Workshop
     
 
 

Calls, Emails, and Meetings 

Track homeowner interactions such as calls, emails, and meetings as Activities. 

See these Salesforce Resources to learn more about Activities: 

  • Activities: Tasks, Events, and Calendars
  • Outlook and Gmail Integration
 
 

Post-Purchase Counseling

While our Housing Counseling App was built for HUD-approved counseling Agencies, it can be used by any organization providing one-on-one counseling. 

There is no additional yearly cost for Housing Counseling. However, there is a one-time setup and training fee when you adopt housing Counseling. You can reach out to support@myhomekeeper.org to get started.

Capital Improvements, Repairs, and Post-Purchase Loans

Capital Improvements

You can track credits or deductions that apply to a homeowner's resale value using Improvements and Adjustments. 

Improvements and Adjustments are tracked on a client's Service File. 

 
 

Repairs

Requests for Repairs

  • Repair requests from homeowners can be tracked using Monitoring Events on the Related tab of the Service File. In the Monitoring Event Type dropdown, select “Request for Improvement” to log details. You can also link the Monitoring Event to a property so you can also review the history on the property as well. 
  • For more information, review: Post-Purchase Monitoring 

Repairs to the Property 

  • Use Development Costs on the Related tab of the Property. Update the “Cost Type” field on the new development cost to identify the expense as a “Rehab”. 
  • To learn more, read: Development Costs article 
 
 

Post-Purchase Loans

Use Funding Sources to capture a homeowner's post-purchase loans, located on the Related Tab of the Service File. 

  • See Track Grant and Loan Terms with Funding Sources for instructions, read the section titled: “Record Loan and Grant Terms, and Program Managed Fund Distribution, for Participants of Non-Home Purchase Programs”
 
 

Assessments and Inspections

Property Tax Assessments 

Your program can continue to monitor property taxes using Assessed Values - Property Taxes, located on the Related tab of the Property.

Be sure that you update the correct property tax year on the new Assessed Value record. 

 
 

Appraisals 

Appraisals after home purchase can be logged in the Appraisals object, located on the Related tab of the Property. Use the “Appraisal Type" field to identify what kind of appraisal you are logging, then update the appraisal date. 

 
 

Inspections

Property inspections can be logged in Monitoring Events, on the Related tab of the Service File. Select Inspection as “Monitoring Event Type”. You can use the “Property” field to link the correct property so the Monitoring Event record appears there as well. 

For instructions, read: Post-Purchase Monitoring and Stewardship

 
 

Monitoring for Compliance 

Occupancy Certifications

You can log post-purchase occupancy certifications using Monitoring Events, located on the Related Tab of the Service File. 

On the new Monitoring Event page, in the “Monitoring Event Type” field, choose “Occupancy Certification”.  

To learn more, see: Post-Purchase Monitoring

 
 

Enforcement Violations

You can track breaches to program requirements using Monitoring Events, located on the Related Tab of the Service File. 

On the new Monitoring Event page, in the “Monitoring Event Type” field, choose “Enforcement violation”.  

For more information, read: Post-Purchase Monitoring

 
 

Insurance Verifications

You can log proof that homeowners maintain the program's minimal level of insurance coverage using Monitoring Events, located on the Related Tab of the Service File. 

On the new Monitoring Event page, in the “Monitoring Event Type” field, choose “Proof of Insurance”.  

For step-by-step instructions, read: Post-Purchase Monitoring
