Residential leases with Docuflex e-signature

Send a lease to the tenant first and the landlord second with sequential routing, initials on every page, a required lead-paint acknowledgment and dated signatures. The sealed PDF and Certificate of Completion go to both parties automatically.

Docuflex features this relies on

• sequential routing with the landlord last
• initial tabs in every page footer
• radio or checkbox tabs for required disclosures
• text tabs the landlord fills at signing, such as the bank holding the deposit

How it runs through the API

1. Stage the PDF with POST /v1/accounts/{accountId}/uploads (or send it inline as base64).
2. Create the envelope with recipients, routing order and tabs; set "status":"sent" to send immediately.
3. Signers complete the token-gated ceremony: disclosure and consent, authentication, adopt signature, fill fields, complete.
4. Docuflex flattens the fields, seals the PDF with a PKCS#7 signature and issues the Certificate of Completion; your webhook fires.
5. Anyone can confirm integrity later with GET /v1/verify/{envelopeId}.

Compliance notes

The signing flow records ESIGN/UETA consent before any signature, captures IP, user agent and the authentication outcome per recipient, and keeps every record append-only. Whether a particular document type may be signed electronically in your jurisdiction is a question for counsel; see e-signature law by state.
