How Do Portfolio Managers Track Tenant-Specific Clauses at Scale?
A portfolio management team responsible for a large retail lease portfolio struggled to track tenant-specific clauses buried in PDFs. Critical obligations such as co-tenancy, percentage rent, CAM caps, renewal options, and exclusivity provisions were difficult to monitor, increasing the risk of missed deadlines and inconsistent lease data.
