Mandatory Application Questions
 
Applications that do not address all three questions in the cover letter will not be reviewed.
 

1. The Naming Test:
   Rename this file using the format [Property Address]-[Document Type]-[Month]-[Year] (use dashes only):
   “Water Bill for 5417 Remmell Ave dated Feb 10, 2026”
   
   
2. The Logic Test:
   We follow a “Date + 1” rule (transactions are recorded one day after the receipt date). If a bill is paid on Friday, Feb 13, what exact date should be entered in Buildium?
   
   
3. The Audit Test:
   If a utility portal requests $150.00, but the PDF bill shows a total of $145.00, what is your immediate next step?
