How to Sign My Lease?

Signing your lease is a crucial step in your housing arrangement. Here's what you need to know:

  • Online Signing: Some landlords may offer the option to sign the lease online. In this case, simply follow the procedure outlined by the landlord. This may involve using secure platforms designed for electronic signatures.

  • Manual Signing: If online signing is not available, you have two options. First, you can print the lease, sign it manually, and then scan it to send back to the landlord.

    Alternatively, you can use an online signing tool, like ILOVEPDF, where you can complete the signature electronically.

  • Beyond Just Signing: Be aware that some landlords require more than just your signature. They may ask you to:

    • Initial (put your initials) at the bottom of each page

    • Write "read and approved" before your signature

    • Write a sentence for the acceptance of a rent supplement

Following these guidelines will help you navigate the lease-signing process effectively and meet your landlord’s expectations.
