What the Tax agent recovers comes from the full picture of the portfolio. It works from everything the other agents already know, so a renovation logged by Construction updates what that property should be assessed at, and a tax clause read by Lease flows directly into the pass-through audit.

The REAL Suite
Each REAL agent is an expert in its domain, built to share context and act on what the others know. The more agents work in your portfolio, the more complete each one's view of it becomes, and the stronger every recovery it makes.
Tax Auditing
Overassessments surface by comparing each property’s assessment against comparable locations and its own history, which is hard to do across hundreds of parcels by hand. REAL combines lease data, assessor records, and tax rules to flag over-assessed properties and missed appeal opportunities, so the cases worth pursuing are identified before the appeal window closes.
Tax pass-throughs should be checked against the lease the same way CAM is, because the same kinds of errors appear. REAL audits the tax charges billed to you against the lease terms and the underlying assessment, and flags discrepancies with the supporting record attached.
Appeal when the evidence shows the assessment is out of line with comparable properties or the property’s actual condition and value, and when the deadline still allows it. REAL surfaces which properties have a defensible case and the timing to act, so appeals go where the recovery is real rather than across the board.
See how the Tax agent monitors every property in real time and builds the case for what your portfolio is owed.
