Property managers using AppFolio for mixed-use or small commercial portfolios must manually enter lease terms from PDFs into each tenant record — a process that is slow, inconsistent across staff, and a source of billing errors when rent schedules are mis-entered.
Upload the executed commercial lease to Lextract. AppFolio supports both residential and commercial tenants, and Lextract extracts the commercial-specific fields.
Lextract extracts tenant name, premises description, lease start and end dates, base rent, escalation schedule, security deposit, and CAM structure.
Check confidence scores on rent amounts and escalation dates before exporting. Billing errors in AppFolio compound over time and require manual correction.
Use the Lextract export as a reference to populate the AppFolio lease record: lease dates, rent schedule, security deposit, and any custom charges for NNN or CAM.
Learn about the full integration between Lextract and AppFolio, including supported export formats and critical fields.

Yes. Lextract extracts whatever term is in the document. For holdover or month-to-month situations, the extracted lease terms help confirm the holdover rate and conditions.
