Lease
and Related Forms Online
It is essential for a landlord to have effective
paperwork when leasing a property to a new tenant. First, you should screen
the tenant with an application. I also recommend that you use a landlord-friendly lease and back it up
with an upfront cost sheet for all damage charges that the tenant may
incur during the property lease period.
When a
tenant causes damages, it is important to charge the
security deposit and demand that the tenant remit the necessary funds
to bring the security deposit back to the full amount, or explain the
damages when refunding the remainder of the security deposit upon
moveout.

Model Lease for Indiana
- The Model Lease helps Indiana landlords by improving tenant management, reducing costs, increasing revenue and, in the event of problems, making evictions as easy as possible. I find that other online leases merely repackage generic language and are not designed specifically for Indiana landlords. Consequently, I personally drafted this lease to protect and favor Indiana landlords by including recent developments in Indiana law. Don't take chances with your valuable real estate. As a landlord myself, I use this lease and I believe that you should too.

Application
- Use this application to gather all the information you need about
your tenant to make a leasing decision, and to locate the tenant later in
case of an eviction resulting in judgment. I have observed that many landlords focus on the wrong information when taking tenant applications. Consequently, I designed this tenant application to obtain useful information for both leasing and collections. Further, I use this tenant application with my own rental properties.

Indiana Security
Deposit Letter - Indiana law requires landlords to inform ex-tenants of any charges to the security deposit and to refund promptly the remaining balance. A failure to comply with the statute means that the law presumes no damages and obligates the landlord to return the security deposit in full. Further, the ex-tenant may sue for a return of the security deposit and recover from the landlord all attorney fees incurred. Protect yourself when you intend to charge the ex-tenant's security deposit and use this template to comply with the law and to inform the tenant that damages have been deducted from the tenant's security deposit.

Replacement
Costs Sheet - Append this form to your lease, and have your
tenant initial it at lease signing. It gives an upfront cost
for any damages that the tenant may cause and eliminates later disagreements over repair costs. I have found this to be a very useful form for justifying the costs of repairs and any charges assessed on the tenant or ex-tenant.
