Sellers provide rent rolls that may not accurately reflect executed lease terms — rents may be overstated, expiration dates may be wrong, and option terms may be omitted. Verifying each line item against source documents is critical for acquisition due diligence but is extremely time-intensive without extraction tooling.
Collect the seller-provided rent roll (Excel or PDF) and all executed lease PDFs from the data room.
Process each lease PDF through Lextract to generate an independent abstract for every tenant.
Download the extracted lease data for all tenants into a consolidated Excel export.
Create a comparison workbook with the seller rent roll alongside Lextract-extracted values. Use VLOOKUP or Power Query to align rows by tenant and flag discrepancies.
Identify discrepancies in base rent, expiration date, escalation terms, and option status. Prepare a variance summary for legal review and seller representation confirmation.
