The Leasing Process (8 steps)
Renting or leasing a property involves a series of steps to ensure a successful agreement. Here are the eight key steps in the leasing process:
- Tenant Views the Space: Before signing a lease agreement, the tenant has the opportunity to view the property and determine if it meets their requirements.

-
Rental Application: The tenant fills out a rental application and pays a small fee to authorize a credit and background check.
-
Landlord Runs a Consumer Report: The landlord conducts a consumer report, including credit and background checks, to evaluate the tenant's suitability.
-
Verify References: The landlord contacts the tenant's references, such as past employers and landlords, to gather additional information.
-
Approving the Tenant: If the tenant passes the screening process, the landlord prepares a lease agreement based on the negotiated terms.
-
Lease Signing: Both parties sign the lease agreement, legally binding them to the terms and conditions outlined in the document.
-
Taking Occupancy: The tenant is granted access to the property on the agreed-upon move-in date.
-
End of the Lease: At the end of the lease period, the landlord decides whether to renew the lease.
