"I realized that QuickBooks wasn't quite sufficient and I started to look around for an affordable tool to replace my spreadsheets and chose Landlord Studio."
Texas, USA
“My dad’s 75 and has over 20 units – Airbnbs, apartments and commercial. We needed a software to help us and Landlord Studio’s been the one. It’s made it so easy for him.”
Ohio, USA
"I tested out several other programs before purchasing Landlord Studio and I'm very happy with it so far. One of my favorite features is the ability to just snap a picture of a receipt and put it in the correct rental unit expense."
Chicago, USA
"Managing 20 rentals alone was overwhelming, but Landlord Studio became my one-stop shop. It simplified bookkeeping, rent, leases, and taxes — even my CPA loves it."
Tallahassee, USA
"I found Landlord Studio so much easier to understand after I looked at AppFolio, RentRedi, and Buildium. All three of them were so hard to understand."

FAQs
E-signature questions, answered
Legality, documents, tenants and cost.
What is an e-signature?
An e-signature, or electronic signature, lets you sign documents online instead of printing, signing and scanning paper. For landlords, it means you can send leases, addendums and forms to tenants, have them signed on any device, and keep every signed copy stored in one place.
Is an e-signed lease legally binding?
Yes. In the US, electronic signatures are legally recognized under the federal ESIGN Act and UETA, so leases and addendums signed electronically are as binding as handwritten ones, as long as both parties agree to sign electronically. Check your state for any extra rules.
What documents can I send for e-signature?
Any PDF, including leases and renewals, addendums such as pet or parking agreements, disclosures, notices, move-in checklists and condition reports. Upload it to the property's Lease documents tab and send it for signature.
Are there documents that should not be e-signed?
Some documents still need paper or a specific delivery method, including notices of eviction, default or right to cure for a tenant's primary residence, court filings, and anything your state requires to be notarized.
How do my tenants sign?
They get an email titled 'Your Signature Is Requested', click Sign document and sign in to the tenant portal. They review the document, draw their signature with a mouse, finger or stylus, type their full name and click Sign & Submit.
How many people can sign one document?
Up to 20 recipients per request, so co-tenants and co-signers can all sign the same lease. You can sign it too.
How do I know when a lease is signed?
You can follow each request's progress from the property and see who has signed and who still needs to. Re-send the request to anyone who hasn't signed, or cancel it at any time.
What happens to the signed copy?
Once everyone has signed, Landlord Studio creates a final PDF with an audit trail showing each signer's name, email, IP address and signing time. It's emailed to every signer and saved with the property's documents.
How much does e-sign cost?
5 e-signed documents are included on every free plan. Unlimited e-signed documents on Pro and Pro Plus.
