How to handle owners with more than one unit
Ideally, an owner should only register using the primary unit in which they occupy, and their tenants should register on any other unit in which that owner owns a unit. However, in some cases, you may have a need for an owner to be registered on each unit that they own. Since each user account in CondoSites must have a unique email address, it can be difficult to accomplish this, but we have the following tips to help.
Create Email Aliases
Most email service providers have a feature commonly known as "Email Aliases" that allow additional email unique addresses to be created, that still deliver to a single email account. Here are links to creating email aliases on several major email service providers.
Gmail by Google (@gmail.com) + Alias
Google doesn't have a help article on the subject, but creating a " + alias " on a gmail is easy! Simply add a + symbol and your desired custom text just before the @ symbol.
Example: johndoe@gmail.com --> johndoe+unit202@gmail.comAOL (@aol.com) Send-Only Address

If the email service provider of your user is not listed, the user will need to contact that provider's support department for availability and instructions on creating email aliases on that platform.
Create/use other email accounts
Some users already have multiple email accounts, and they can simply use one of their other email addresses for their additional unit. If they do not have an additional email address, and are unable to use the Email Alias option above, they will need to create an additional email account with the provider of their choice.
