Free Kentucky lease agreement, built for your tenant and address
Answer a few questions and get a Kentucky residential lease with your tenant, your address, and the disclosures Kentucky law calls for written in. We wrote it to the statute; a Kentucky attorney has not reviewed it yet, so read it before you rely on it. When it reads right, send it to your tenant to sign online. Building it is free, with no credit card and no account to start.

What is built into the Kentucky lease
- The written manager and owner disclosure, the security deposit account disclosure, and the signed move-in and move-out damage listings the Act requires
- The seven-day notice for nonpayment and the fifteen-day notice and cure terms for other breaches, and the two-day entry notice
- The statewide protected-tenant rights for domestic-violence survivors and the Kentucky National Guard extension of the servicemember protections
- Drafted around Kentucky's prohibited-provisions statute: no attorney's-fee clause, no indemnity or hold-harmless language, no limitation of the landlord's liability, no confession of judgment, no lease-created lien, and no clause that penalizes a call for help
Kentucky's Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act is law only where a city or county has adopted it. This lease follows the Act where it applies and applies the Act's protections as its own terms everywhere else, and it never guesses which rule your address is under. It does not carry the Louisville rental registration or any local program.
How it works
- Answer a few questions. Property address, tenant names, rent, dates, deposit, and the handful of choices the lease actually turns on. About five minutes, one topic at a time.
- Watch the lease fill in. The real Kentucky document fills in as you go, so you can read every clause before anyone signs.
- Send it for signing. Your tenant signs online, from any phone. Sending it sets up your PropManager account, free for your first 2 weeks with no card.

Common questions
Is the Kentucky lease really free?
Building it is free, with no account and no credit card. To send it to your tenant for e-signature you create a PropManager account, which is free for your first 2 weeks with no card.
Is it reviewed by a Kentucky attorney?
No. PropManager Editorial wrote it, and the template is current through the 2026 Regular Session of the General Assembly and verified against the Kentucky Revised Statutes as the Legislative Research Commission publishes them. It is an informational starting point, not legal advice, and it is not a substitute for a licensed Kentucky attorney reviewing your situation.
Can I edit the lease?
You set the terms by answering the questions: rent, dates, deposit, and the handful of choices the lease turns on. The document fills in as you go, so you can read every clause before you send it. The wizard is not a free-form editor.
Does it work outside Kentucky?
No. This template is Kentucky-specific. Other states have their own templates, linked below. For a state we have not written yet, the wizard gives you our general-use lease and says so plainly.
What if my state is not covered yet?
You can still build and send a lease: the wizard gives you our general-use lease and tells you so plainly. Leave your email and we tell you when your state's own lease is ready. Covered states are listed at the bottom of this page.
