Multiple recipients support: Lease agreements often require signatures from multiple parties, such as landlords, tenants, and property managers. You can add multiple recipients, allowing all necessary parties to sign the document electronically, regardless of their location. This eliminates the need for coordinating in-person meetings and expedites the signing process.
