How are landlords sharing leases with tenants?
I am trying to figure out the best way to share leases online with tenants to make singing easier. Google docs? Other cloud services?

A really simple way to handle sharing leases is through HelloSign and Dropbox integration. Essentially all your documents for them are stored in a shared Dropbox folder. After signup with HelloSign (better pricing, same service as Docusign) you can connect to Dropbox and automatically sign and send leases. This keeps a copy in their shared folder seamlessly. Even without signing, I find Dropbox sharing and storage to be a clean simple storage method. Just digitally scan those lease and place them in a shared folder.
As mentioned by @John Underwood we almost always meet tenants in person. The walk-through inspection and tenant onboarding process is absolutely critical, so signing leases in person is definitely preferred.
