Buildium & Chicago lease
Hi All,
Is anyone using Buildium's eLease functionality for Chicago property? I was hoping to import the Chicago Association of Realtors lease into the Buildium editor, but alas... it does not accept pdf docs, only Microsoft Word (docx). Cutting, pasting, (and formatting) the entire five pages of lease (plus 19 pages of required addenda) does not sound like great fun, but may be an option.
Also need to find out how to include the required addenda but there appears to be a way.
Any input appreciated, even if it's just to say "don't bother, not worth the trouble", etc.
Cheers,
Allen

For electronic leases I've just used docusign and then uploaded into buildium. There are a ton of pages but its not a whole lot to fill out.
