Collecting emergency contact information at move-in is essential property management. You may need it if a tenant is hospitalized, if there is an emergency at the property and the tenant is unreachable, or in tragic circumstances where next-of-kin notification is needed.

  • Medical emergency at the rental unit
  • Tenant has abandoned the property and you need to locate them
  • Lease is in default and the tenant cannot be reached by other means

Privacy and Storage

Emergency contact information is sensitive personal data. Store it securely, limit access to authorized personnel only, and use it only for legitimate emergency purposes. Update this form annually or when tenants notify you of changes.
