Lease & portfolio skills

Hugo skills for lease abstraction, CAM disputes, renewals, co-tenancy, critical dates, and portfolio Q&A.

Note

Reference catalog. New here? Read What is Surfaice? and Skills first. CAM = common area maintenance. Lucernex is a common lease-admin system of record.

These skills support lease administration and portfolio intelligence. They are common in retail tenant workspaces connected to a lease admin platform (for example Lucernex), email, and document repositories.
