COMMERCIAL LEASE AUDITS & CAM AUDITS

Business Handshake

Identify Overcharges. Recover Value. Protect Your Lease Portfolio.

Commercial lease expenses are complex, and even well-negotiated leases can be administered incorrectly. CAM charges, property taxes, insurance, management fees, and other operating expenses may not always be calculated in accordance with the lease.

​

CRE Companies helps multi-location tenants identify improper charges, recover historical overpayments, and protect against future value leakage.

Why CAM Audits Matter

The teams negotiating, drafting, administering, and paying a commercial lease often operate independently. That disconnect can create inconsistencies between what the lease says and how a landlord calculates CAM and operating expenses.

​

A detailed CAM audit tests those charges against the lease's requirements, exclusions, caps, and allocation methods. Across a large lease portfolio, even small discrepancies can add up to significant overpayments.

Our Goal

We don't simply identify discrepancies and hand our clients a report.

​

Our commercial lease audit and recovery process includes:

  • Reviewing leases, amendments, and CAM reconciliations

  • Analyzing CAM, property tax, insurance, and management fees

  • Testing charges, caps, exclusions, and allocations against the lease

  • Identifying and documenting potential overcharges

  • Engaging directly with landlords and property managers

  • Pursuing valid claims through resolution and recovery

​

Our goal is simple: turn CAM audit findings into actual refunds, credits, and savings for our clients.
