How does e-signature work?

86 views 0 December 1, 2022 Updated on April 15, 2026 mippsupportadmin

E-signature in Mi Property Portal replaces handwritten signatures and makes lease signing faster and easier for property managers, tenants, and landlords.

When E-Signature Is Available

E-signature works only for new system-generated leases. It does not work for existing leases. For lease creation steps, see: How to Create a New Lease.

E-Signature Process

  1. The property manager creates a new lease in the admin portal.

  2. After the lease is created, it must be approved before it can be sent for signature.

  3. Once approved, the property manager sends the lease to the prospective tenant by email as a PDF.

  4. The tenant receives an email titled “Lease Signature Requested” and uses the validation code in the email to access the lease.

  5. The tenant reviews the lease, reads the terms and conditions, and signs in the signature area.

  6. After the tenant submits the signature, a confirmation message appears on the screen.

  7. The property manager receives a notification that the tenant has signed the lease.

  8. The property manager reviews the signature, confirms it in the portal, and then sends the lease to the landlord/property manager for signature.

  9. The landlord signs the lease in the same way, and the lease process is completed.

Additional Documents

If needed, the property manager can attach additional documents before sending the lease. These documents can be added from the Document Management section.

Important Notes

  • The email to the tenant is not sent automatically. The property manager sends it when ready.

  • Co-applicants and additional tenants can also receive signature requests.

  • If a signature is invalid, the property manager can return to the tenant and resend the request.
