What to Add in a Lease Receipt?

• A legit lease receipt should have complete information about the property being leased, like the complete address of the property.
• Lease receipts should also have reference numbers in order to easily track the payment made.
• The period that the payment amount covers should be included so that it will be easy to determine if the lessee missed any payments.
• The amount of money paid as well as what it is paid for should be stated.
• The date that the payment was made should be added too.
• Also, the name of the person who paid the rent should be on the rent receipt, regardless if it is the lessee or not.
• Lastly, both the owner’s and the payee’s signature should be affixed in the receipt. These signatures seals the agreement and will serve as a proof that the owner has received the payment and the payee has made the payment. We also have Contractor Receipts available.
