prospective tenant signed an electronic lease online February 7th, which said lease begins February 10th and security deposit is due on ot before signing lease. he has not paid the deposit and said he is thinking about backing out on the apartment, can he be held liable per lease since it says security deposit has to be paid on or before lease is signed and he signed lease with no money given upfronf? 

What I like about TenantCloud over something like Cozy.co is that it has automated template leases / notices, electronic signatures, an accounting feature, and great reporting features.

One tip is to use an electronic rent collection service to take out the human interaction in collecting rent and other fees.

The type of business sometimes matters too (for example, a licensed taxi driver in Philadelphia has a tough time making ends meet the last few years due to competition from UberX and Lyft).So start by getting the applicant to give you physical (or electronic) copies of at least the last two years worth of tax returns, plus the applicant must give you completed and signed copies of IRS form 4506T covering every year of tax returns being submitted; if any of those are amended returns, you must require that you be given the original un-amended return as well.

Under the hybrid model, guests/residents use their platform of choice (airbnb, vrbo, expedia, etc.) or our platform, book their own rooms, need a credit card, get an e-key, communicate with us electronically, stay as long as they like, have their gym/laundry/pool/outdoor kitchen on site, and the properties are located in the shopping and entertainment districts. 

For receipts I try and keep it all to places that have electronic receipts.

MLS dues are paid quarterly, board dues yearly, e&o will vary, your going to need to pay electronic lockbox access to get access to homes. 

If you're worried about what a potential renter may do....here's what I did when I advertised on GoSection 8......No Smokers of any kind,....period....no vaping, no marijuana, no e-cigarettes, NOTHING.No Animals or Pets, PERIOD (Of course if someone told me they had a Service Animal then I of course showed them the property because by law I had to).No Evictions, EVERNo Felonies, EVER1st Month's rent is due BEFORE move in.I could care less about their credit score because I know Sect. 8 is paying most of their rent anyway.I also let them know that there will be a background check that THEY pay for through SmartMoveAlso, in the ad it stated that (their portion of the) rent is collected electronically through E-RentPayment so if they don;t have a bank account then they need to have one before applying.Still got TONS of inquiries.

I only have a plain electronic lock, so the guests can use a code to get in and don’t have to worry about a key.

If I'm not physically there to check properties out, my buyers can and paperwork for some title companies and escrows can be done electronically correct?
