When I first started out in Real Estate I had no one to go to for help, I had no prior experience in real estate at all. I bought a place not knowing how or where to get a lease contract. I was going in blind as they say. With the day and age of google. I simply turned to the search engine and started searching. I was left with many options; however I didn't know if any of them would be reliable.

After hours and hours on the web, I finally find what I now call the holy grail of land lording documents. It was as if I had stumbled across a gold mine. Ezlandlordforms.com was it, it was what I had been looking for.  I first looked into their many forms and then grew by buying some and then tweaking them to fit my needs.

In short this website has these basic tools/benefits

• Creating Leases
• Tenant Screening
• Rental Application
• 100's of other forms

They also provide state specific forms that are geared toward anything your state might have in regard to rules and requirements for rental properties. This comes in handy so often, as staying up to date on local laws is tough, but exlandlordforms does it for you. Signing up for their newsletter keeps me updated on any forms they add or if they know of any upcoming laws in the books.

Creating Leases

This feature is huge, as you are able to customize right on their website. You can add in any clauses or requirements and it speeds the process up as the templates are already solid as it is. I used this until I got over 10 units and then simply used this lease and a lawyer prepared one and cherry picked what I liked from each into my "own" lease with.

Tenant Screening

 The screening process is mobile friendly, and they offer the following:

Credit Report

• FICO Score
• Credit Accounts
• Payment History
• Judgements, bankruptcies, and other red flags

Criminal Report

• Nationwide search
• Sex offender data
• Fraud alerts and Identity verification
• DEA, FBI, ODAC and other databases
• Most Wanted Lists

 This is simply great, half the people I met who own property don't even run background checks, and they are always getting burned by one of their tenants. Since doing this I can safely say I rarely have an issue, and when I do its usually because of unforeseen issues such as losing their job...etc.

Rental Application  

The application can be created and sent via text to the prospective tenant via ezlandforms.com. It is connected to the screening software, so you can simply click a few buttons without having to input all of the persons information. These features saves a lot of time!

Final Thoughts:

Picking forms off of 20 different websites is hard, tiring, and downright dumb. ezlandlord.com makes everything easy with putting it all in one place and allowing you to customize almost anything along the way. You can use these forms knowing you’re going to be okay and these will likely hold up in a court of law

I like to use the KISS method. Keep It Simple Stupid. Don’t overwork yourself this investing thing is supposed to be fun remember? You simply benefit to much from this website, can you afford not to use it? More importantly are you going to spend the time to find lease agreements, rental application, state forms, lead based paint forms, pet information forms, eviction forms…. Do I need to go one? Pull your head out of the gutter and start using this website! Don’t wait around like I did and then get stuck in a position without the property documents. You literally have one job and this is it!
