Tenant Welcome Packet: Fillable & Printable Move-In Guide for Landlords (Rent, Repairs, Utilities, Move-Out)
Most tenant headaches start with "nobody told me." Late rent, a repair call at midnight, trash out on the wrong day, a surprise deduction at move-out. This welcome packet answers those questions on day one, in writing, so you're not repeating yourself to every new tenant.
Fill in your rental's details once, save a copy for each unit, and hand it over at lease signing or move-in.
