Still Creating Leases the Old Way?
Every province requires a specific residential tenancy agreement format. For most Canadian landlords, that process looks painfully familiar.
📥 Download & Fill Manually
Download the Ontario standard lease PDF from the government website, then struggle with Adobe to fill it in. Re-type the same property details for every new tenant.
✍️ Paper Signatures
Print the lease agreement, arrange in-person signing, then scan and email copies. Or worse — mail physical copies back and forth across the country.
🔁 Repetitive Data Entry
Same property address. Same landlord info. Same additional terms. Typed over and over, lease after lease. Every keystroke is a chance for costly human error.
📁 Filing Chaos
Leases scattered across email threads, Google Drive folders, and filing cabinets. When the LTB asks for a copy, you spend 30 minutes searching.
⚠️ Compliance Risks
Each province has different lease requirements. Using the wrong form or including illegal clauses can result in withheld rent and dismissed LTB applications.
🐌 Slow Tenant Onboarding
The gap between "approved tenant" and "signed lease" can take days or weeks. Meanwhile, the unit sits vacant and you lose rental income every single day.
There's a better way.
Mi Property Portal automates the entire lease creation process — from the first field to the final signature. The right provincial form, auto-filled with your property and tenant data, compliant with your province's residential tenancy act, signed electronically, and stored forever. In under 3 minutes.
How Automated Lease Creation Works
From your lead management page, click "Create Lease" and follow a simple guided process. Most fields are auto-filled.
Create the Lease
Select the province. The correct residential tenancy agreement form loads automatically. A guided 6–7 step wizard walks you through every field. Most data is pre-filled from your last lease for that unit — landlord details, property address, additional terms, and clauses carry forward. Add your schedules, addendum, or custom terms. Done in under 3 minutes.
Collect E-Signatures
A structured approval and signing workflow ensures everything is done right. First, an authorized approver reviews the lease. Then, the tenant signs electronically. Next, the landlord signs electronically. Once both signatures are collected and verified, you're ready for the final step.
Activate the Tenant
With both signatures verified, create the tenant profile with one click. The signed lease is automatically linked to the tenant profile and instantly available in the tenant portal and owner portal. Lease management, rent collection, and maintenance tracking are all connected from day one.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about automated lease creation, provincial leases, and electronic signatures in Canada.
What is the Ontario standard lease, and is it mandatory?
The Ontario standard lease is a government-mandated residential tenancy agreement that most private landlords must use for tenancies signed on or after April 30, 2018. It is governed by the Residential Tenancies Act and enforced by the Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB). Using the wrong lease form or including illegal clauses can result in tenants withholding rent and dismissed LTB applications. Mi Property Portal generates the compliant Ontario standard lease automatically, ensuring every field meets provincial requirements.
Which provinces does Mi Property Portal support for lease creation?
Mi Property Portal supports automated lease creation for 8 Canadian provinces: Ontario, British Columbia, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, and Newfoundland & Labrador. Quebec and Alberta are not supported because these provinces do not have government-mandated standard lease forms. Each province's correct residential tenancy agreement form is built directly into the platform.
Can I sign a lease electronically in Ontario?
Yes, electronic signatures on the Ontario standard lease are accepted if both the landlord and tenant agree to use them. The Ontario government's own guide to the standard lease confirms this. Mi Property Portal includes a built-in e-signature workflow that collects tenant and landlord signatures electronically, with a structured approval process to ensure compliance.
How does the auto-fill feature work for lease creation?
When you create a new lease for a unit, Mi Property Portal automatically pre-fills fields from the last lease created for that unit or property. Landlord details, property address, additional terms, clauses, addenda, and schedules all carry forward. You only need to update tenant-specific information and confirm the rent amount. This eliminates repetitive data entry and reduces human errors to virtually zero.
What is a BC residential tenancy agreement, and does Mi Property Portal support it?
The BC residential tenancy agreement (RTB-1) is the standard form prescribed by British Columbia's Residential Tenancy Branch. It is the required lease format for most residential tenancies in BC. Mi Property Portal generates the compliant BC residential tenancy agreement automatically with the same guided wizard, auto-filled fields, and e-signature workflow used for all provinces.
Can I add custom additional terms and clauses to the lease?
Yes. In every lease created through Mi Property Portal, you can add your own additional terms and clauses, an addendum, or schedules. For Ontario, these are added in the designated Additional Terms section of the standard lease, as required by law. Your custom terms carry forward to future leases for the same property, so you only need to write them once.
How does the lease approval and signature workflow function?
Mi Property Portal uses a structured 4-step signature workflow. First, someone with approval permission reviews and approves the lease. Then, the tenant receives the lease for electronic signature. Next, the landlord signs electronically. Finally, once both signatures are collected and verified, you can create the tenant profile with one click. This process ensures accuracy and compliance at every stage.
How long does it take to create a lease with Mi Property Portal?
Less than 3 minutes. The guided 6–7 step wizard (depending on the province) walks you through every section of the lease. Since most fields are pre-filled from your last lease for that unit, the process is approximately 70% faster than manually filling out a downloaded PDF. Property managers with multiple units report the time savings are significant across their portfolio.
Where is the signed lease stored after completion?
Once both signatures are verified and the tenant profile is activated, the signed lease is automatically linked to the tenant profile. It is instantly accessible in three places: the property manager's dashboard, the tenant portal (so tenants can view their lease anytime), and the owner portal (if you manage third-party properties). No more filing cabinets, email searches, or Google Drive folders.
How much does automated lease creation cost?
Automated lease creation is included in all Mi Property Portal plans, starting from $0/month on the Free plan (up to 25 units). The Basic plan is $24.99/month + $0.99 per unit, the Essential plan (recommended) is $69.99/month + $1.39 per unit, and the Premium plan is $89/month + $1.89 per unit. All prices are in Canadian dollars, with no contracts, no hidden fees, and no setup costs. Visit the pricing page for full details.
