I don’t know what the right title is for this post but here is how the story goes. I just signed my lease with a building management last Friday in person and paid the deposit for it. The management used their own lease agreement which is similar to the bc tenancy agreement and everything went well. I also received tenant portal for their building with my unit number clearly stated there too. The manager asked for a void cheque and told me they will send me my copy of lease after. However I still haven’t received my lease whether by email or the renter portal. I called the office today but no answer and emailed as well. I gave my month notice to my current landlord. Should I be worried or is this a normal process?

  • Sounds normalish, it was Friday before a holiday week. If you signed the lease in person it likely hasn’t been scanned/ uploaded.

    Check back with the building manager.

  • Is there somewhere you can physically go to their office to talk to them?

    If you did this all Friday, and today is Monday, it’s only been 1 business day during a week a lot of people take extra time off.

    It’s pretty normal for them to email you a copy of the agreement, and they do have 30 days to do it.
