# 6.8 Paperwork Procedure for Residential and Commercial Lease/Property Management Transactions

Associates must provide and perform the following actions to complete a lease file:

1\. Once any agency relationship is established, casual or formal, a communication and activity log needs to be completed and any PDF’s of any showings you conduct with that buyer need to be saved with the log. Any other relevant information pertaining to the landlord/tenant needs to be saved with that file. A log of activity can be kept using Skyslope by going to the Log section and entering a note.. Once your client goes to escrow, you may upload all the documents pertaining to the client into the file under the Documents Section.

2\. Within 24 hours of writing any lease, the Agent will create a new transaction in Skyslope. Upload any signed documents to the transaction for the Reviewer to review. **ALL** applications (accepted or not) must be uploaded to the transaction (in Skyslope and Appfolio). If the application is accepted and a lease is executed, upload all executed documents to Skyslope and Appfolio and submit the file for review.

Application Recap:

If the application is **NOT** accepted: Document why the application was rejected and then upload the file into Skyslope. This is done in Appfolio where the tenant is denied due to a credit report, etc.

If the application **IS** accepted: The Agent drafts up a lease, executes the lease and all documents below, then uploads all executed documents to the transaction in SkyslopeandAppfolio then submits the file for review.
