Your NIN (National Identification Number) is required to complete identity verification. Have it ready before you start.
Getting started
Create your account at leja.com
Go to leja.com and click Get started. Registration happens on the main Leja site — once your account is created, you’ll be redirected to professional.leja.com automatically.Enter your email address and create a password. You’ll receive a verification email; confirm it before continuing.
Verify your identity with your NIN
After confirming your email, Leja will prompt you to verify your identity.Enter your National Identification Number (NIN). Leja uses your NIN to issue your personal Residential Identity Number (RIN) — the professional identity that all your Leja activity is attributed to.
NIN verification is mandatory for all users. Without it, you cannot confirm payments, generate agreements, or create witnessed records.
Create your organisation profile
If you’re a solo agent, you can skip the organisation step and go straight to adding your first property. Your personal RIN acts as your professional identity.If you’re setting up a property management agency, create an organisation profile:
- Enter your firm’s name and primary business address (LGA required).
- Select your operating states — the states where you manage properties.
- If your firm is CAC-registered, enter your Business Registration Number (BRN). Leja will verify it and issue your firm a Business RIN.
- Lagos-based firms: upload your LASRERA permit to unlock Lagos Tenancy Law compliance features.
Add your first property
Navigate to Operations → Properties and click Add property.Enter the property address, state, and LGA. The state you enter here determines which tenancy laws apply to all documents generated for this property — Leja applies the correct template automatically.See Properties for the full field reference and property RIN details.
Add your first tenant
With your property created, go to Operations → Tenants and add your first tenant.You need the tenant’s full name, phone number, and the unit they’re occupying. Leja issues the tenant a RIN silently on creation — their payment history starts accumulating from this point.See Tenants for what happens during RIN issuance and how deduplication works.
What gets created during setup
| Action | What Leja creates |
|---|---|
| Account verified with NIN | Your personal RIN (Residential Identity Number) |
| Organisation profile created | Your firm’s BRN (Business RIN) |
| Property added | Property RIN — unique identifier for the property |
| Tenant added | Tenant RIN — silent issuance, linked to their phone number |
State compliance is automatic
You do not select a compliance template or configure document settings. When you enter a property address with a valid state and LGA, Leja applies the correct state tenancy law to every document generated for that property. If you manage properties across multiple states, each property gets its own compliance context.Lagos, Oyo, and FCT are active in the current release. Properties in other states use the general national framework until state-specific templates are added.
