Limited to 3 free scans per day. The scan counts missing items and names the categories — it does not draft language.
Scanning your lease against your state's requirements…
Missing or not found in your lease
What this means: the scan looked for these categories in the text you pasted and couldn't find them. It names the categories only — a compliant lease needs the full, correctly-worded clause for each. Automated check, not legal advice.
Generate a fully compliant lease instead
LeaseHelper generates a complete, state-specific residential lease with every required disclosure and clause written out in full — deposit terms, entry notice, lead paint disclosure, move-in checklist, and more.
Or get all 6 landlord documents (lease, eviction notice, renewal, rent increase notice, move-out checklist, termination letter) in the $99 bundle.
What the scan checks
Residential leases have to carry specific disclosures and clauses that vary by state: the federal lead-based paint disclosure for pre-1978 properties, state-specific security deposit terms and return deadlines, landlord entry notice, late fee and grace period terms, and state-specific disclosures like bedbug history, mold, radon, or flood zones. The scan compares your pasted text against the checklist for your state and reports a count plus the category names — so you know exactly how exposed your current lease is before you sign or renew. For the underlying rules, see our guides on what a residential lease must include and security deposit laws by state.
FAQ
What does the free lease scan check?
It compares your pasted lease text against the disclosures and clauses required or strongly recommended for residential leases in your state — the federal lead-based paint disclosure (pre-1978 properties), state-specific deposit terms, landlord entry notice, late fee terms, applicable state disclosures (bedbug, mold, radon, flood), habitability language, and more. It returns a count of what's missing plus the category names.
Is the scan really free?
Yes — up to 3 scans per day per user. The scan shows what's missing; if you want a lease that includes every required clause and disclosure for your state written out in full, LeaseHelper generates one for $39.
Is my lease text stored?
The pasted text is sent to our scan service to produce the result and is not published or shared. Avoid pasting sensitive personal data (SSNs, bank details) — the scan only needs the lease clauses themselves.
Is this legal advice?
No. The scan is an automated informational check, not legal advice or a compliance guarantee. Laws change and local ordinances add requirements. For complex situations, consult a licensed attorney in your state.
