About This Automation

Lease renewal involves monitoring expiration dates, researching market rents, and coordinating notices between owners and tenants. Manual tracking across spreadsheets and emails creates delays, missed deadlines, and inconsistent rent valuations.

Automation monitors lease dates, researches comparable rents, drafts renewal notices, and routes them for approval. Owners review and approve terms; the system then sends final notices to tenants and logs all activity automatically.

Key features:
Monitor lease expiration dates and trigger renewal workflows automatically
Research comparable market rents and populate renewal notices with current data
Draft renewal notices with property details and proposed terms
Route notices to owners for approval before tenant notification
Send final renewal notices to tenants and log all renewal activity

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Check for Upcoming Lease Renewalstrigger

Automation scans the lease tracking spreadsheet daily for leases expiring within 60 days and no renewal notice yet sent. Triggers a renewal workflow for each matching lease.

2. Fetch Market Rent Data

Automation queries a public real estate data source or API to pull current comparable rents for the property type, location, and size. Returns median and range for the area.

3. Generate Renewal Notice Draft

Automation populates a renewal notice template with property details, current rent, proposed new rent (based on market data and a configured escalation rule), and renewal terms. Outputs a document.

4. Notify Owner for Approval

Automation sends the draft renewal notice to the owner via email with a link to the document and a request to approve or modify terms within 3 business days.

5. Owner Reviews and Approves

Owner reviews the proposed rent and terms, makes any edits to the document, and replies to confirm approval. This step remains manual because owner judgment on rent strategy is critical.

6. Send Final Notice to Tenant

Automation retrieves the approved renewal notice, sends it to the tenant with the owner's approved terms, and includes a deadline for acceptance.

7. Log Renewal in Tracking Sheet

Automation updates the lease tracking spreadsheet with the renewal notice date, proposed rent, tenant email, and status 'Sent'. Adds a follow-up reminder for 10 days later if no response.

8. Alert Team

Automation posts a summary confirming the renewal notice was sent, showing the property, new rent, and tenant contact, so the team has visibility.
