Tenants & rent

Add a tenant and lease

Create the lease once and BahaySuite makes every month’s rent charge, deposit and advance for you.

4 min readOpen in BahaySuite
  1. Go to Leases → New lease.
  2. Pick the Unit. Its monthly rent fills in.
  3. Under Tenants, choose an Existing tenant or New and type their name, email and phone. Add co-tenants or occupants if there are any.
  4. Set the Start date and End date, or use the quick buttons (6 months, 1 year, Month-to-month).
  5. Check the Monthly rent, Security deposit (2 months suggested), Advance rent (1 month suggested) and Rent due day (1 to 31; 31 means the last day of every month).
  6. Leave the status on Active and click Create lease.
The New lease form: unit, tenant, term and rent, deposit and advance, and the rent due day.

BahaySuite creates the deposit charge and a rent charge for every month of the lease, due on the day you chose. Advance rent is the first month’s rent (or first months’): that charge is due at move-in and marked Advance rent, so the month isn’t billed again when it begins. Open-ended leases get the next 3 months, topped up as time goes on.
