Grow private equity advisory work

Add sourced lease cost reviews to portfolio work.

By Angel Campa, FounderUpdated July 15, 2026

CAMAudit builds the report and dispute letter draft. Your team reviews and signs each one.

Grow private equity advisory work

Add a lease cost lane to deal and portfolio work.

Keep each action tied to source files. Give it one owner.

Do not call a flagged item realized value. Approval must come first.

The EBRD study tracks planned strategies and action items. That model supports a bounded lease cost lane.

It does not prove that every company has savings.

See the Practice Growth hub for other firm growth paths.

Charter the work

Set the scope before asking for files.

The lease cost charter sets site rules and owners. It also sets proof states. CAM work stays apart from wider real estate plans.

KPMG's portfolio paper calls for sponsor and company alignment. Your charter turns that need into named steps.

Rank portfolio files

Start with company readiness. Then rank each site and year.

The portfolio review queue tracks rights text and bills. It also tracks owners and file gaps. Weak files stop before firm review.

Do not compare guessed dollar totals. Compare the same source fields.

Add deal evidence

Lease expense checks need their own diligence schedule.

The buyout diligence guide covers clauses, bills, disputes, and open support. It also names the post-close owner.

Deloitte's real estate guide tests lease workpapers against source records. Its scope is owner-side work.

Your target company needs a tenant-side evidence lane.

Map post-close actions

Carry open items out of diligence.

The 100-day action map assigns files and reviews. It assigns choices by day band. A date does not prove a result.

A&M's PE roadmap puts real estate work across the deal life. That supports a clear handoff after close.

Browse the transaction advisor resource hub. It holds more deal and portfolio guides.

Put your firm behind the work

The four guides create four records. They are a charter, queue, schedule, and action map.

Your firm owns each client call. It also sets the next record owner.

CAMAudit checks the lease and CAM files your firm supplies. It runs fixed math checks.

The branded CAM audit keeps checked findings with source lines. Your firm reviews and signs it.

CAMAudit may also prepare a dispute letter draft. Your firm reviews that draft.

It is not legal advice. Have counsel review before sending.

Set firm roles with the service line guide.
