is slow and unprofessional.

secure system to manage the entire leasing process from start to finish. Get your properties leased
faster, with less risk and zero paperwork.

Proven Outcomes
Real Estate Management
Property Management Firm Reduces Vacancy Turnaround by 7 Days
Rachel Manning Director of Operations, Lone Star Property Group
Problem: The firm was losing significant revenue due to prolonged vacancy periods caused
by an inefficient, paper-based leasing process. The lack of a standardized system created compliance
vulnerabilities and consumed excessive administrative resources, preventing the company from scaling its
portfolio effectively.
Challenges:
Average 7-10 day delay from tenant approval to lease execution.
Inconsistent lease terms used by different agents.
No central repository for signed documents, making retrieval difficult.
High administrative costs tied to printing, scanning, and data entry.
Solution: eSignly implemented its Business Plan, starting with the conversion of the
firm's master Texas lease agreement into a standardized, reusable template. We established required fields
and data validation to ensure all necessary information was captured correctly every time. Leasing agents
were trained to send leases for signature directly from their mobile devices or laptops. Finally, we used
eSignly's API to connect with their existing property management software, automatically creating a new
tenant record once a lease was fully executed.
Outcomes:
Lease execution time reduced from an average of 8 days to 24 hours.
Administrative overhead for lease processing cut by 90%.
Achieved 100% consistency and compliance in all new lease agreements.
"eSignly took our leasing process from a chaotic mess of emails and paper into a streamlined, digital
machine. We now close leases in hours, not days. The audit trail gives our legal team peace of mind, and
our agents can focus on leasing properties, not pushing paper. It's been a game-changer for our
operational efficiency."
Property Investment
Independent Landlord Fills 3 Properties in One Weekend
Wesley Porter Owner, Porter Properties LLC
Problem: The landlord's manual, insecure process was causing delays in securing tenants,
risking longer vacancy periods and lost income. He lacked a professional system, which created a poor
first impression on new tenants and left him vulnerable with a legally questionable lease agreement.
Challenges:
Difficulty coordinating signatures with out-of-state tenants.
Concerns about the legal validity of his downloaded template.
No secure or organized way to store signed leases.
Process was time-consuming and unprofessional.
Solution: The landlord signed up for eSignly's Professional plan. He used a pre-built,
Florida-specific residential lease template from the eSignly library, which he customized with his
specific property details and rules. He then sent the secure signing link to the approved tenants via
email. The tenants were able to review and sign the leases immediately on their smartphones, and the
landlord received instant notifications upon completion, along with the final, tamper-proof document and
audit trail.
Outcomes:
Reduced time-to-lease from over a week to under 36 hours.
Eliminated 100% of printing and scanning costs and hassles.
Increased confidence with legally-binding, compliant agreements and secure storage.
"I had three properties become available at the same time and was dreading the paperwork. With eSignly, I
sent out all three leases from my phone on a Saturday morning. By Sunday evening, all three were signed,
sealed, and delivered. I didn't have to print a single page. The professionalism and speed are unmatched
for a small landlord like me."
Commercial Real Estate
Commercial Brokerage Firm Accelerates Deal Closures by 40%
Problem: The brokerage's slow, paper-shuffling process for executing complex commercial
leases was delaying revenue recognition and creating a frustrating experience for clients. Version control
issues during negotiation also introduced the risk of parties signing an outdated draft.
Challenges:
Coordinating signatures from multiple, geographically dispersed stakeholders.
Version control issues with lease drafts during negotiation.
Delays in commission payments tied to lease execution.
Lack of visibility into the signing status of the agreement.
Solution: Pinnacle Commercial adopted eSignly's Business plan for their team of brokers.
After finalizing the lease terms, the final version of the lease (as a PDF) was uploaded to eSignly. The
broker would then tag all the required signature and initial fields for the tenant, landlord, and any
guarantors. Using the specified signing order feature, the document was automatically routed to the
correct person at the correct time. All parties received a copy of the final, fully executed agreement
automatically.
Outcomes:
Average deal closing cycle shortened by 40%.
Eliminated all version control errors at the signing stage.
Improved client satisfaction scores by 25% due to a smoother process.
"In commercial real estate, time is money. eSignly allows us to finalize a lease the same day terms are
agreed upon. Our clients appreciate the modern, secure process, and our brokers get paid faster. The
ability to see who has viewed the document but hasn't signed is a powerful tool for follow-up."

if a dispute ever arises."
Thomas Lamb

right after a showing and often get it back signed before I even get back to the office. It helps me close
deals faster."
