Match the statement to the governing language
Locate definitions for taxes, insurance, operating expenses, tenant share, gross-up, exclusions, caps, administration fees, records access, and notice timing.
Reconcile the tenant share
Confirm the numerator, denominator, excluded areas, occupancy assumptions, and any building or phase allocation. A correct expense total can still produce an incorrect tenant bill when the share is wrong.
Escalate material items with evidence
Use the first pass to identify specific dollars and documents. Material or disputed conclusions should be reviewed by a qualified lease auditor, accountant, or attorney.
