Recovery of past CAM overcharges depends on your specific lease terms, including any audit rights deadlines or ‘binding and conclusive’ provisions, and on applicable state law. State statute of limitations periods apply to written contracts and range from 3 to 10 years; your actual lookback window may be shorter based on your lease. CAMAudit is a document analysis platform, not a law firm, and nothing on this site constitutes legal advice. Consult a licensed real estate attorney before initiating any dispute or legal proceeding.

Choose CAMAudit if

  • ✓You need to find CAM overcharges, not just organize lease data.
  • ✓You want quantified findings and the best recovery economics from a flat-fee audit.

Choose CPA Firm CAM Audit if

  • •You expect litigation or need a human expert, CPA signature, or court-ready testimony.
  • •You are comfortable with a slower, more expensive engagement because the dispute is unusually complex.

Overcharge detection

CPA Firm CAM Audit can find issues through manual review, but CAMAudit is better for most tenants because it runs 13 tenant-side detection rules in minutes and quantifies each finding by dollar amount.

ROI and fee drag
