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.

District of Columbia CAM Dispute Letter Strategy

Last updated: April 2026

DC office tenants on full-service-gross leases with 2020-2022 base years have the largest single dispute lever in the market: the gross-up correction. Run the math.

How to land the District of Columbia dispute letter

Cite D.C. Code § 12-301 and the gross-up provision in your lease. Send the dispute letter to the K Street or downtown DC institutional landlord notice address via certified mail. Show the partial-occupancy gross-up correction year-by-year.

District of Columbia case-law angle

DC courts apply standard contract-construction principles and read base-year and gross-up clauses strictly when the language is clear. If the lease specifies gross-up "to 95% occupancy" the obligation binds.

Generate your District of Columbia dispute letter draft

DC tenants — the base-year gross-up scan is the dispute lever. Generate the letter and send it inside the lease audit window.
