Lease Audit Software for Commercial Tenants

Lease audit software that reads your lease provisions and checks the landlord's reconciliation math. Not ASC 842 compliance. Not lease abstraction. Overcharge detection, with dollar amounts, in under 15 minutes.

Lease Audit Software vs. Lease Accounting Software

Most results for "lease audit software" show lease accounting platforms built for ASC 842 and IFRS 16 compliance. Those tools track lease portfolios, manage payment schedules, and generate financial reports. They do not detect overcharges. CAMAudit is lease audit software built for a different job: reading your specific lease provisions and checking whether the landlord billed you correctly.

What Lease Audit Software Checks

CAMAudit runs 14 detection rules. Each rule is deterministic: it applies the formula from your lease to the figures on your reconciliation statement. No guesswork, no approximations.

• 1

  Gross Lease Charge Detection

  Flags CAM charges billed under a gross lease where those expenses should be included in base rent.

• 2

  Excluded Service Charges

  Identifies services your lease explicitly excludes from CAM that appear on the reconciliation anyway.

• 3

  Management Fee Overcharge

  Compares the billed management fee percentage against the cap your lease specifies and quantifies the overcharge.

• 4

  Pro-Rata Share Error

  Recalculates your pro-rata share from the GLA denominator your lease defines, including anchor exclusions.

• 5

  Gross-Up Violation

  Verifies that gross-up is applied only to variable expenses at the occupancy threshold your lease permits.

• 6

  CAM Cap Violation

  Checks non-cumulative, cumulative, and compounding cap structures against the reconciliation figure.

• 7

  Base Year Error

  Validates the base year stop and verifies that the escalation calculation starts from the correct baseline.

• 8

  Controllable Expense Cap

  Flags overcharges on controllable expenses that exceed the separate cap your lease places on them.

• 9

  Insurance Overcharge

  Classifies each insurance line item and flags premium allocations that exceed what the lease permits.

• 10

  Tax Overallocation

  Reviews property tax pass-throughs for over-allocation, incorrect denominator use, and excluded categories.

• 11

  Utility Overcharge

  Identifies utility charges that are sub-metered, improperly allocated, or outside your lease definitions.

• 12

  Common Area Misclassification

  Flags capital expenditures, structural repairs, and landlord-only costs reclassified as recurring CAM.

• 13

  Landlord Overhead Pass-Through

  Identifies above-grade salaries, officer compensation, and corporate overhead billed through CAM.

• 14

  True-Up Verification

  Verifies the arithmetic on the year-end true-up reconciling estimated payments against actual expenses.

How Much Does a Commercial Lease Audit Cost?

Commercial lease audit costs vary by method. Traditional CPA audits run $3,000 to $15,000 per property and take 4 to 12 weeks. Contingency audit firms charge $250 upfront plus 33-40% of any recovery. Lease audit software changes that cost structure.
