Before a potential renter submits a reservation request for your space, they might [message](https://www.neighbor.com/dashboard/442833/messages/all) you with a few questions! Renters might want to confirm that their items will work with your space, or ask you for more details. 

If a renter messages you before they submit a request, this pop-up will show up in your messages:

If you feel like the renter will be a good fit, you can give pre-approval! By clicking the “Pre-approve this renter” button shown above, the renter will be automatically approved after they submit an official reservation request. 

Your renter will be sent a pre-approval message with a “Reserve” button to take them directly to your listing. After they finish submitting a request, they’ll be given automatic approval! 

Now it’s time for them to move in!
