Justee's commercial lease review tool analyzes business rental agreements for CAM charge fairness, personal guarantee scope, tenant improvement terms, and renewal option adequacy. The AI identifies risks including uncapped CAM charges, unlimited personal guarantees, inadequate build-out allowances, and unfavorable renewal terms. Justee provides suggested revisions based on commercial real estate standards. Commercial leases govern business property rentals and are far more negotiable than residential leases. They include complex provisions for operating expenses, improvements, and lease terms. Common issues include CAM charges that escalate unpredictably, personal guarantees that expose owners personally, and renewal options that don't protect against rent spikes.

Hypothetical Case Study by Justee

Justee recently analyzed their commercial lease for a 3,500 sq ft storefront for a growing retail business signing a 5-year lease in downtown Houston, TX.

Issue Found: CAM charges were defined as "all costs landlord deems necessary for property operation" with no cap, and had increased 40% year-over-year at the property, adding thousands in unexpected costs.

Justee Recommendation: We negotiated a CAM cap of 5% annual increases, exclusions for capital improvements and landlord's administrative costs, and annual audit rights for CAM reconciliation.

Uncapped CAM Charges

Problematic Language

"Tenant shall pay Tenant's Proportionate Share of all Common Area Maintenance costs as determined by Landlord in its sole discretion."

Recommended Language

"Tenant shall pay Tenant's Proportionate Share of CAM costs, which shall not increase more than 5% annually. CAM shall exclude capital improvements, landlord's overhead exceeding 5%, and costs resulting from landlord's negligence. Tenant may audit CAM records annually."

Why it matters: Uncapped CAM with landlord discretion is a blank check. CAM caps, exclusions, and audit rights are standard commercial lease negotiations.

No credit card required

"Justee is redefining the legal document compliance process across all practice areas, transforming hours of work into minutes, while reducing stress and boosting accuracy."

Commercial Lease Agreement Review FAQ

Common Area Maintenance charges cover shared expenses like parking lots, lobbies, and landscaping. They can escalate significantly without caps.

Try to avoid or limit them. If required, negotiate caps, burn-off provisions (guarantee reduces over time), and specific exclusions.

Money the landlord provides for build-out. Negotiate TI allowances based on lease length and market conditions.

Almost everything in commercial leases is negotiable: rent, CAM caps, TI allowance, renewal terms, and use restrictions.

Tenant pays base rent plus property taxes, insurance, and maintenance. Common in commercial but shifts significant costs to tenants.
