Who signs the Lease? Property Manager or Owner

[Rhia Mckissic]

Hi everyone,

Qq- I’ve been working with a freelance PM. We have a tenant in process- my property manager is telling me that he uses Turbo Tax and the lease he generates only requires his signature and the tenants. And that I’d be “out of the mix” Is this customary? What are your thoughts?

In my PM agreement I allow the PM to sign the lease but it still requires my approval
