How to Save Time on your Lease Management

Time flies when you’re having fun, but it flies even faster when you have deadlines.

We’ve all complained about never having enough time. As much as we love that huge sigh of achievement we can release when we manage to get everything finished, it barely makes up for the stress caused from juggling a hundred and one tasks.

Why Timing Is So Important In Leasing

• Notice dates and deadlines are essential – failure to contact the lessor on important decisions by the dates specified in the lease documentation can lead to ever-green extensions and avoidable charges. There are rarely exemptions or periods of grace for late replies.
• Leases and Assets need to be located – most documentation regarding leases gets neatly organised away into a folder, but hunting down a master lease when you need it is never as simple as we’d hope. Finding important information such as asset serial numbers, return conditions or even where the asset is physically located can be time consuming without a consolidated management system.
• Manual audit trails are tricky to follow – knowing what was agreed, who was involved and other actions taken regarding a lease agreement is difficult to do when your only sources are memory and your ever-filling inbox.
   
• Gathering data for reports – compiling reports on active leases can be a daunting task and take up to several days to get everything you need for an accurate and thorough review.
