Valix CRE Engine is a web platform for commercial real estate operators, independent firms, syndicators, and asset managers managing 150 to 2,000 units. It handles CAM reconciliation, percentage rent, tax escalation, co-tenancy, and sub-metering. CAM workflows automate annual true-ups, track recoverable and non-recoverable charges, and generate tenant statements. Percentage-rent calculations support natural and artificial breakpoints, custom calculations, tenant exceptions, and auditable quarterly true-ups. Tax escalation uses square footage, lease commencement, and exclusions before posting one general-ledger entry. Meter readings become consumption-based charges posted to tenant ledgers in real time. Accounting includes a double-entry ledger, 101 Yardi-compatible accounts, integer-cent precision, period locking, audit trails, 1099 generation, and fixed-asset depreciation. An AI lease scanner extracts 22 fields and flags results below 85% confidence for review. Investor tools include consolidation, waterfall distributions, K-1 generation, and a portal. Residential Core costs $2 a month per unit; Commercial Pro costs $4 a month per unit.
