Import tenants from signed leases
Upload signed leases and PropFlow reads each one and adds the tenant after you check it.
1 min read
No spreadsheet? Upload your signed leases instead. PropFlow reads each one for the tenants, unit, lease dates, rent, Section 8 split, deposit and late fee. You check everything before it's saved. Only the company owner can do this.
Heads up: Lease reading must be turned on for your account first. If the page says "Lease reading isn't turned on yet", use Import from a spreadsheet instead.
- Go to Portfolio → Properties, click Import, then click Import from leases →.
- Click Choose leases (or drag them in). Use PDFs or photos, one lease per file. Scans and phone photos work. PDFs must be under 25 MB.
- Wait while each lease is read. It can take up to a minute each.
- Click Review to check what was found.
- Fix anything that's wrong: the property, unit, tenants, phone, email, lease dates, rent, subsidy (HAP), deposit, and Owes today.
- For a new address, fill in the property details and Owner on leases.
- Click Import.
What happens
- Leases are matched to your properties by address. New addresses become new properties.
- If the unit already has that tenant, the lease is filed with them. A renewal updates their lease dates.
- The signed lease is kept on the tenant's page, visible to your team only.
Questions
It says the copy doesn't look signed. Is that a problem?
It's a warning so you can check. Upload the signed copy if you have it.
What does `Owes today` mean?
What the tenant owes right now, counting this month's rent. Enter 0 if they're paid up.
