Line up outgoings figures with the lease computation clause
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- For each charge other than base rent, copy the lease clause, the amount or method printed in it, and the figure on the landlord's worksheet. Write no sentence of the statement that goes to the tenant.
- What the lawyer must review
- Texas Property Code § 93.012 bars a commercial landlord from assessing a charge other than rent or physical damage unless the amount or the computation method is in the lease, an exhibit or attachment, or an amendment. You decide whether a worksheet figure is a permitted charge. A retail-lease outgoings statute was not opened.
