Anyone have the STR rental agreement portion automated?
Hi All,
We recently implemented some automation software on the backend to help reduce the manual emails and text messages with guests. One part that is not automated that we would like to automate is the rental agreement process.
What I would like to happen is somehow after the guest reservation is accepted, for that information to feed into our rental agreement template and automatically be sent to myself/guest to review and eSign. Today I manually login to our PDF/esignature platform and email our contract/template to myself and the guest to review and esign.
Has anyone automated that piece? I know we could outsource it to a virtual assistant, etc. but wanted to automate it if possible.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
Mike

I created an online rental agreement on JotForm and it has worked out great. When I get a booking I send them the link as part of welcome email. They e sign. Take a pic and upload drivers license, Enter email, if they want pool heat turned on 30 per day for that and will collect payment. I also have them enter the names of drivers that will need gate passes. I customized it for the information I need. Has been so much better then old school paper rental agreement and chasing people down for them.
