In the age of digitalization, every aspect of our daily lives is undergoing a transformation, and the property sector is no exception. Among these innovations, online lease signing stands out by revolutionising interactions between landlords and tenants, making rental management considerably simpler, particularly for individual landlords, who have to manage their property alone, without going through an agency.
Online lease signing is an innovative solution that is increasingly being adopted in the Swiss property sector. It is a process that allows landlords and tenants to sign tenancy agreements electronically, without the need for a physical meeting. This method relies on secure digital platforms, which use advanced encryption technologies to guarantee the confidentiality and integrity of information.
For landlords, this represents a considerable time saving, increased flexibility and simplification of administrative procedures. This technology enables documents to be signed and sent instantly, significantly improving the letting process. It also makes it possible to sign from any location, eliminating geographical constraints. So whether you're in the office, at home or on the move, signing the lease remains accessible and convenient.
As we've mentioned, electronic signatures benefit from advanced encryption technologies, guaranteeing optimum security. Platforms such as Skribble (SherlockHomes.ch's partner in this stage) are specially designed to comply with Swiss laws and regulations, ensuring the legal validity and compliance with confidentiality and security standards of the data signed.
Note: in Switzerland, the electronic signature is legally recognised and complies with the regulations in force, particularly those relating to data protection and the security of online transactions. This modern practice meets today's society's need for mobility and efficiency, while ensuring the legality and reliability of agreements between landlords and tenants.
At SherlockHomes, we aim to innovate in rental management by offering a fully online, automated and free solution. We offer a self-generated lease that can be signed online, making it easy for individual landlords.
How exactly does it work? The lease agreement, approved by the cantonal authorities, is drawn up automatically and pre-filled with details of the property as well as the selected tenant's information. Once generated, the lease is sent electronically to the prospective tenant for signature and payment of the reservation fee. This entirely digital process is secure and managed in collaboration with Skribble.
Note: the prospective tenant receives an email inviting them to sign their lease, and has 48 hours to sign the document securely online. If the tenant does not sign within this time, a new lease is automatically generated for the next applicant. This system guarantees efficient and rapid management of lease signatures.
Online lease signing is a symbol of the modern era where efficiency, security and accessibility are paramount in property transactions. With SherlockHomes, rental management becomes simpler, faster and more secure.
