This is how to end a tenancy:
- Open the lease page.
- Fill in the Charge rent until box. This will determine up to which date SleekTech will charge rent.
- Fill in the Tenant vacating date. This does not affect invoices, but will mark the property as Vacant from that date.
- You can also fill in the Contract End date but it is not mandatory.
- If the provided date is in the future, SleekTech will stop generating invoices for this tenancy starting from that date.
- If the date is in the past, ensure that all invoices dated beyond that point are deleted.
- If the end date is in the middle of the rent period, SleekTech will create a partial rent invoice for that period.
- Once the end date has passed, the lease will be marked as Terminated if the balance is zero, if not zero will be marked as O/S terminated. You will need to release the deposit for the balance to clear to zero, please see the following article for guidance on this: How to release tenant deposits
- If the end date has passed but the tenant is still outstanding it will still show up on All arrears so that you remember to settle the balance.
