How do I attach my own lease document?
ForLandlordsProperty managers
Who can do this
Landlord, Organization admin, Organization members with Create Leases.
Where to find it
Add lease → Add the lease document (Optional).
Steps
- Under Or bring your own, click Upload a lease ("PDF or Word. You place the signature fields."). Your computer's file picker opens.
- Choose a PDF or Word file.
- The document card shows a page thumbnail, the file name and "Uploaded · <N> pages · <file name>", then Place signature fields and a More options (⋮) menu with Download and Remove.
- With invites on, the card lists Who signs (each tenant, then you). Each signer has a "No fields yet" badge until you place fields.
- Click Continue, or Skip to add no document ("Not now").
What happens next
Under the card: "Tenants sign in Kera after you add the lease." and a Check compliance link. To collect signatures, see "How do I send the lease for signature from Add lease?".
Good to know
Organization admin on a property with an owner: your signer row reads "You, for <owner>" with "Landlord's agent · <company>".
Troubleshooting
"Couldn't upload the lease document" on save: nothing was saved; try Add lease again. If the message says changing a lease document needs permission to create or edit leases, the member's role is missing that permission.
