It generally includes the lobbies, corridors, staircase, parking lots, washrooms, elevators etc.

A commercial property for lease is bounded by a payment structure in which the tenant pays the proportionate share of all common charges along with the basic rent. • The CAM charges are determined during the signing of the lease documents between the landlord and the tenants. The landlord tries to include most of the operational costs into the CAM charges, whereas the tenants try to turn the direction of negotiation otherwise.
