A 1031 buyer on a deadline needed a fast read on a multi-tenant retail strip. We cross-checked every lease against public records and tenant filings.
Two anchor-adjacent tenants were month-to-month rather than on long-term leases as marketed. Re-priced for the real risk, the deal still cleared — a Proceed at a lower number.

Key Highlights:
A buyer brought us a multi-tenant retail strip where the rent roll told a cleaner story than the leases did. We reconciled every line before pricing.
Rent roll reconciled against leases, estoppels, and public records
Month-to-month and below-market tenants flagged
Reimbursements and recoveries verified tenant by tenant
Income re-based on contracted, collectible rent

Challenges
Two tenants carried lease terms on the rent roll that the recorded documents didn’t support — enough to move the income, and the price.
Key Challenge Points:
Two overstated lease terms versus public records
Stated rents above what the leases actually contracted
Reimbursement income credited beyond the lease language
