Lease Expiration Tracker

By Angel Campa, Founder · Updated March 2026 · Saves 1–2 hours per lease initial setup

The Problem

Missing a lease expiration or option notice deadline can mean losing renewal rights or being locked into unfavorable holdover terms. Tracking these dates requires accurate data from every lease, and manual extraction means the tracker is only as good as the last person who read each document.

Step-by-Step Workflow

  1. 1
    Upload all active lease PDFsSource

    Upload the executed lease for every active tenant to Lextract.

  2. 2
    Extract critical dates from each leaseLextract

    Lextract extracts lease expiration date, renewal option notice deadlines, termination notice periods, rent escalation effective dates, and any lease-specific milestone dates.

  3. 3
    Download consolidated dates exportLextract

    Download the extraction as an Excel file with one row per lease and columns for each critical date type.

  4. 4
    Build expiration and notice deadline trackerDestination

    Load the extracted dates into an Excel tracker with conditional formatting to highlight upcoming expirations and notice deadlines within 90, 180, and 365 days.

  5. 5
    Set calendar remindersDestination

    Use the extracted dates to set reminders in Outlook or Google Calendar for each option notice deadline — at minimum 30 days before the deadline.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if a tenant has multiple renewal options?

Lextract extracts each renewal option period separately, including the notice deadline and term length for each. All options appear as separate rows in the dates export.

Does Lextract extract holdover provisions?

Yes. Lextract identifies holdover rent rate (often 150% of base rent) and the nature of the holdover — month-to-month or at-will — so you know the consequences of expiration without renewal.
