**Messages** is the main way to contact your landlord or property manager about your tenancy.

* Each conversation has its own topic. Start a separate conversation for a different issue, such as arranging a handover, asking about rent or reporting damage.
* Once an issue has been resolved, the landlord can mark the conversation as **Resolved**. Use the **Open** and **Resolved** filters to find conversations by status.
* For conversations you started, both you and your landlord can change the status. For conversations started by the landlord, only the landlord can change it.
* Use search to find specific conversations.

{% hint style="info" %}
A conversation is visible to all tenants in your tenancy who are registered in the Immodio tenant portal.
