We read your lease and show you what it says, quoting the exact clause each time. We don't tell you what to do about it.
For decisions like renewing, disputing a charge, or a disagreement with your landlord, talk to a commercial real estate attorney or broker. Our explanations can contain mistakes, so check anything important against the clause we quote.
A new tenant sees this screen once. Three sample documents are already attached below, so just tap Read my lease to watch the app read them and set everything up. You'll land on the home screen after that.
Upload your signed lease, every amendment, and your most recent reconciliation statement. The statement is what keeps your cost estimates current.
Your documents stay private to you and anyone you choose to share them with. They are never used to train anything.
Estimates are only as current as your latest statement. When Northline sends a new estimate letter or statement, add it and these numbers update.
Your 2025 reconciliation arrived July 15. You have until Oct 13 to dispute it in writing. After that it's final under Section 2.4.
Section 20.30 lets you end the lease on May 31, 2027 for a $40,000 fee, if you give notice at least 180 days ahead. You probably aren't leaving. This is the only time you could.
Section 6.2 requires servicing your units at least twice a year and changing filters five times a year. Your lease can't tell us when it was last done.

Last serviced March 12. Next due by September 12, so you're 10 days overdue.
Why it matters: a skipped service lets the drip tray overflow. It looks like a roof leak, a roofer gets sent first, and you pay for both visits.
Written notice at least 12 months before the lease ends, or all three options are void. Nobody is required to remind you. We will.
You rent 1,800 sq ft at $31 per sq ft, and on top of that you pay about 4.24% of what it costs to run the whole center, with no ceiling. The landlord keeps the roof and structure standing. You keep everything inside working, including the air conditioning.
Your share is your 1,800 sq ft divided by the center's leased square footage, so it moves when tenants come and go.
Landlord items aren't free to you. Their cost is shared by all tenants through CAM.
Quirks only you know. Your manager approves them, then they show to vendors on every request.
Add new amendments, estimate letters, and statements as they arrive. Where two documents disagree, the newest one wins, and we'll tell you what changed.
All of 2025 you paid an estimate of the center's operating costs. The real costs came in higher, mostly because Dallas County raised the property's tax appraisal. This is the difference. It is normal under a triple-net lease, and your lease has no cap on it.
Section 2.4: a bill you don't dispute in writing within 90 days becomes final. That's October 13. If any line below looks wrong, say so before then, even while you pay.
Tap a line to see where the number comes from.
Parking lot resealing and a new landscaping contract drove the increase. The landlord adds a 10% administrative fee on top of the actual costs, which your lease allows. There is no cap on how much CAM can rise year to year.
Dallas County reappraised the center about 9% higher for 2025. Taxes pass through at cost, and the landlord's fees for protesting the appraisal are billed as tax too. Your lease also counts the landlord's Texas margin tax and the cost of protesting the appraisal as "Taxes," and you've waived the right to protest it yourself.
The landlord's property and liability premiums renewed higher in 2025. Passed through at cost. This is the one category where your lease promises a credit if you overpaid.
Your 1,800 sq ft divided by the center's average leased square footage for the year, which was 42,460 sq ft in 2025. The patio doesn't count. If a neighbor moves out, the center's leased total drops and your share goes up.

Every manager's format is different, usually a spreadsheet like this. The app reads it and turns it into the walkthrough above. Figures invented; layout modeled on a real 2025 statement.
Your lease requires notices by certified mail or overnight courier (Section 20.2). Email alone may not count.
Explanations are generated from your lease and the landlord's statement. They are not legal or accounting advice. If a number looks wrong, dispute it in time and talk to your accountant.
Managers don't need an account to take part. When a tenant reports a landlord item, the manager gets this email. One tap acknowledges it, and the tenant sees that in the app right away.
Tenants are the primary users. Managers join the flow without signing up for anything, which avoids asking both sides to adopt at once. A read-only manager view and access notes come with the free account.
