In the leasing business, you have a lot on your plate. The last thing you need to worry about is getting overwhelmed by cumbersome, manual paperwork like background checks, lease applications, and lease agreements. Luckily, leasing automation can utilize e-signatures for frequently used documents like lease agreements—quickening the process and eliminating any need to meet with customers in person to capture wet signatures. COVID-19 has radically fast-tracked the rate of digital adoption in the leasing automation industry. E-signatures have played an essential role in facilitating lenders to digitize the lease application process without face-to-face communication. This success has encouraged more significant interest in fully digitizing the lease closing process.
