▶Landlord Forms Bundle
The application, the lease, the rent increase letter, the notices and the receipts, plus the one tab ledger the rent lands in.
Two things cost a small landlord real money: a notice served with the wrong period, and a lease borrowed from the internet that never had your own state's numbers in it.
- Seven hundred and nineteen fillable form fields across ten PDFs, ninety of them checkboxes: type into them, save a master copy with your details already in it, or print them and fill them in by hand
- An editable Word edition of every single document, so the wording matches how your own state words it rather than ours
- A check your state page inside the lease that lists the deposit cap, the days to return it, the late fee cap, the entry notice, the notice to end a tenancy and the notice to raise the rent
- A rent increase letter with the old rent, the new rent, the increase and the percentage, the start date and a delivery block you tick and date so you can prove service
- A rental application with the screening consent that has to be signed before you order a credit or background check, and the fair housing rules printed on the form
- One move in and move out inspection sheet, marked in both columns and signed on both days, with what counts as wear rather than damage spelled out
- A notice to vacate that works in both directions, with the warning that a self help eviction is illegal everywhere in the United States
- A one tab Rent Ledger: your units and the rent roll, every payment, days late, the late fee and the balance, and four tiles for the month
Overview
The application, the lease, the rent increase letter, the notices and the receipts, plus the one tab ledger the rent lands in.
Two things cost a small landlord real money: a notice served with the wrong period, and a lease borrowed from the internet that never had your own state's numbers in it.
This bundle answers both on paper. Ten documents cover the tenancy from the application to the notice that ends it, and the lease carries a whole page listing every number your state sets rather than guessing one for you.
What's Included
One ZIP, 25 files:
- One ZIP holding ten documents in two formats, the Rent Ledger in three colorways, a Quick-Start PDF and a START-HERE file
- Real AcroForm fields in every PDF, so any reader that fills forms will type into them on a Mac, a PC or a phone
- A Word edition of every document, for the clauses your state words differently
- A worked tenancy already filled in, so nothing is blank until you replace it
- A link to the narrated video tutorial that walks the whole bundle end to end
Key Benefits
Why this one
The last page of the lease lists every number your state sets rather than inventing one: the deposit cap, where it is held and the days to return it, the late fee cap, the entry notice, the notice to end a tenancy in both directions and the notice to raise the rent. Look yours up once and every other form in the bundle agrees with your lease.
Notice periods are set by state and often by city, and a notice served with the wrong period is the most common reason a case is thrown out. Every notice in this bundle asks for your period rather than assuming one, and carries a delivery block you tick and date.
The rent increase letter states the current rent, the new rent, the increase and the percentage, the date it starts and the first payment due at it. Count the days from the day the tenant receives it, not the day you wrote it. There is a short reason section too, because re-letting costs far more than the increase is worth.
One inspection sheet, walked with the tenant on the day they move in and again on the day they move out, marked in both columns and signed on both days. Faded paint, worn carpet and small nail holes are called out on the form as wear, not damage.
Fillable PDF for the tenant who signs on a phone at the showing. A printed master for the folder. An editable Word file for the line your state words differently.
Who It's For
Built for
- First time landlords letting one unit and writing their first lease
- Small landlords with two to five doors who have been reusing a borrowed lease
- Anyone raising the rent this year who wants the letter to be right
- Landlords whose paperwork lives in a phone and a shoebox
How It Works
Up and running in minutes
The last page of the lease lists every number your state sets. Look yours up once and write them in. Every other form then agrees with your lease.
Type your name, your business and your property into the header once and save that as your master. You will never type it again.
Replace the four sample units with yours and type the rent each one pays. The rent roll adds itself up and the four tiles fill in.
Fill it once per property and hand it over with the keys. Most of the first month's calls are answered on that one sheet.
Why It's Different
Not another template
The shelf sells a single rental application as a flat PDF you cannot type into, or a lease that quietly names a notice period from a state that is not yours. This is ten documents with 719 real form fields, a Word edition of every one, and a lease that is honest about which numbers are yours to look up. The rent ledger is included so the money those forms describe has somewhere to live.
Delivery & Compatibility

As soon as your order is complete you get instant access to download the ZIP: ten documents as fillable PDFs, the same ten as editable Word files, the Rent Ledger in three colorways, a Quick-Start PDF and a START-HERE file. Nothing ships.

FAQ
Questions, answered
Can I actually type in these?
Yes. There are 719 real fillable form fields across the ten PDFs, 90 of them checkboxes.
Can I change the wording?
Yes. Every document ships as an editable Word file as well as a fillable PDF.
Is this legal advice?
No. These are business documents. Landlord and tenant law varies by state, county and city, so have a local attorney review your lease and your notices before you use them.
Is it state specific?
No, and that is deliberate. The blanks sit where your state decides the answer, and the lease carries a page listing every one of them so you can fill them in from your own rules.
Does the ledger need Excel?
Excel 2016 or later, or Google Sheets, or Apple Numbers. No macros, no add-ons and nothing to install.
Is there a video?
Yes. A narrated walkthrough on YouTube goes through every document and every column. Every screen in it is a page of the real file.
Business documents, not legal advice. Landlord and tenant law varies by state, county and city, and some cities regulate rent, notice periods and deposits far more tightly than the state around them. Have a local attorney review your lease and your notices before you use them. Never change the locks, remove belongings or cut off a utility to make someone leave: a self help eviction is illegal everywhere in the United States. The federal lead paint disclosure applies to any building put up before 1978.
