Centralizing rental contract documents means every agreement lives connected to the property, owner, or guest it relates to — searchable through the record itself, not buried in a shared drive with no link back to the booking. In **Jestor**, **Docs** connect directly to cards and property records.

Rental contract documents scattered across a shared drive create a specific, recurring cost: someone has to remember exactly where a given contract was saved, rather than simply opening the related record.

## What scattered contract storage costs

- Documents saved in a shared drive with no connection to the property or booking
- Difficulty finding the right contract without remembering exactly where it was filed
- No version history tied specifically to the property or guest it concerns
- Documents becoming orphaned when the person who filed them is unavailable

## How centralized contract documents work

- **Docs** connect directly to the property, owner, or guest record they relate to
- Documents inherit the same permission structure as the record they're attached to
- Version history applies the same way it does for other connected data
- Finding a contract means opening the related record, not searching a shared drive

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Documents stay connected to their actual context, not floating in a generic drive
- Permissions apply consistently, following the record's own access rules
- Search and access happen through the property or booking record itself
- Reduces the "who has the current version" problem scattered storage creates

| Scattered document storage         | Centralized, connected documents         |
| ---------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------- |
| No link to the property or booking | Directly attached to the relevant record |
