Improving CAM Reconciliation Consistency across a Multi-State Commercial Property Portfolio
A property management company with more than 50 years of experience managed a portfolio of commercial and residential properties across California and other states. The organization utilized Yardi for property management operations but continued to rely heavily on manual processes for CAM reconciliations.
