Lease Signing - overview

Once you’ve accepted an applicant, the lease is the last step before move-in. RentSpree’s e-sign tools let you get the lease signed digitally: both you and your tenant sign from any device, and the completed document is stored for your records.

Two ways to set up your lease

Upload your own lease. Upload your lease as a PDF, PNG, JPG, or JPEG (20 MB max), place signature, date, initial, text, and checkbox fields, assign each field to a signer, and send it out. Available with Landlord PRO or RentSpree PRO. Set up and send a lease for e-signature covers the steps.

Build from C.A.R. form. California Association of Realtors members can build the approved C.A.R. lease step by step and send it for e-signature, no subscription required. Generate a C.A.R. lease agreement covers the steps.

Lease templates

After you send an uploaded lease, you can save it as a template to reuse, with your fields already placed. Ready-made lease templates from RentSpree are coming soon.

Before you upload

Two things keep your lease from processing correctly, so check both first: the file isn’t password-protected, and it has no editable text fields (standard PDF text is fine).

If you don’t have a lease yet, your state’s landlord association is a good place to find a standard one for your area.
