Paperless property management: rental agreements and handover protocols online
A property manager juggles dozens of tenants, owners and suppliers at once. Every tenant change, repair or annual contract review generates a mountain of paperwork — rental agreements, flat handover protocols, GDPR consents, service orders for tradespeople.
Most of these documents still travel by post or email as scanned PDFs. The result: lost documents, delayed signatures and unnecessary trips to tenants.
What property managers handle most often
- Rental agreement — signing, renewal, termination
- Flat handover protocol — describing the property’s condition on arrival and departure
- GDPR consent — mandatory under data protection law
- Service/repair order — for suppliers and tradespeople
The digital signing advantage for property managers
With zipzipdoc a manager can send a rental agreement to a tenant who happens to be in another city. The tenant signs on their phone with an OTP code in a few minutes. The full audit trail — who, when and where signed — is stored in the cloud.
No trips, no waiting for post, no lost documents.
Flat handover protocol
When handing over a flat the manager opens zipzipdoc on a tablet, documents the condition (ideally with photos), and both parties sign digitally on the spot. The protocol is immediately saved and linked to the contract in the archive.
Numbers that speak for themselves
- The average rental agreement takes 3–5 days to sign on paper
- With digital signing you can do it in under an hour
- A manager with 50 properties saves dozens of hours a year on admin alone
