Lease Analyst I

Description

A real estate lease abstractor will manage day‑to‑day lease administration tasks, including abstracting critical lease information and entering it into lease abstraction software. The role places a strong emphasis on data quality because the extracted information supports many other departments within the organization.

Key responsibilities include abstracting and interpreting commercial lease documents such as leases, amendments, subleases, and termination agreements, then inputting this data into platforms like Leverton, ProLease, or MRI. The abstractor reviews peer abstracts to ensure all critical lease data—tenant billing, lease dates, square footage, recurring charges, options, etc.—is accurately captured, and works with internal stakeholders to obtain required documentation for development milestones and rent commencement notices. Additional duties involve maintaining tenant/landlord naming conventions, flagging items that need further information, coaching new team members, and developing workflows to improve overall abstraction accuracy.

• Abstract and interpret commercial lease documents, including leases, amendments, subleases, and termination agreements.
• Enter lease data into abstraction platforms such as Leverton, ProLease, or MRI.

• Coach and train new team members on lease abstraction processes.
