A Kentucky lease agreement is a legal document used when leasing rental property. After viewing the property, the Tenant completes a rental application with their employment, credit, and background information. If approved, both parties negotiate and sign a lease agreement.

Rental Application – A Rental Application is a document landlords or property managers use to collect information from prospective tenants. The information provided in the application is used to verify the tenant’s identity, employment, credit score, rental history, and other relevant details necessary to determine their property eligibility.
