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.

Texas CAM Dispute Letter Strategy

Last updated: April 2026

Texas controllable-cap miscalculation and capital-expenditure inclusion are the dispute lever for Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, and Austin commercial product. The recoveries are large because the cap compounds annually.

How to land the Texas dispute letter

Cite Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code § 16.051 and the controllable-cap and exclusion clauses from your lease. The dispute letter should show the compounding-base correction year-by-year and identify each excluded line item still in CAM.

Texas case-law angle

Texas courts apply a strong four-corners doctrine. What is in the lease binds, what is not, does not. If the lease excludes capital expenditures, the exclusion is enforced as written.

Generate your Texas dispute letter draft

Houston, DFW, and Austin tenants — generate the dispute letter draft. The compounding-cap and exclusion corrections together usually produce the largest single recovery in the country outside of Manhattan and Cambridge.
