WHAT THE LEASE REQUIRES · WHAT YOUR INSURANCE SHOWS

Does the insurance match the lease?

Start with an industrial, office or retail example. Enter what the lease asks for, add the insurance documents you received and see missing limits, wording, dates and annual costs in one place.

ONE CERTIFICATE MAY NOT ANSWER EVERY LEASE QUESTIONCompare the lease, policy details, endorsements, broker review and renewal date
01 · READ THE LEASEWhat insurance does it ask for?

Enter the coverage, dollar limit, maximum deductible and due date.

02 · ADD THE DOCUMENTSWhat did the insurer or broker provide?

Distinguish certificate, declarations, policy wording, endorsements and broker confirmation.

03 · COMPAREWhat is missing or does not match?

Expose entered limits, deductibles, business-income periods, parties and wording controls.

04 · KEEP IT CURRENTWho follows up before it expires?

Preserve owners, dates, costs, exceptions and the complete renewal evidence package.

PRIVATE WORKSHEET · SAVED ON THIS DEVICE

Check the lease against the insurance you have.

Work from left to right: choose a sample, enter the lease requirements, add the documents received and link each document to the requirement it is meant to prove.

Keep private information out: use short document references—not full policy numbers, banking details, signatures, claim details or personal information. A certificate alone may not show all policy wording or endorsements.
Not sure what goes where? Read this first.

Lease requirements are the insurance promises written in the lease—for example, “$5 million commercial general liability” or “landlord named as additional insured.”

Insurance documents are what you received from the broker or insurer, such as a certificate, policy summary or endorsement. Add each document once.

Linking tells the tool which document is supposed to prove each lease requirement. The tool then shows what matches, what is missing and what needs a broker or lawyer to confirm.

MODEL BOUNDARIES

A reconciliation file—not an insurance opinion.

  • All requirements, evidence states, dates and amounts are user-entered and must be verified against the complete current lease, amendments, policies, endorsements and broker advice.
  • Linked nominal limits are added only for comparison. The model does not determine whether policies stack, respond, overlap, exclude a loss or satisfy the lease.
  • A certificate can evidence selected facts but is not treated as the complete policy or endorsement wording.
  • Status labels are workflow outputs only. They do not establish insurance compliance, breach, waiver, legal effect, claim coverage or recovery.
  • Premiums, deductibles, reserves and shortfalls are presented separately. Limit gaps and deductible excesses are not expected-loss estimates.
  • Use qualified insurance, legal, accounting, tax, risk, environmental and technical advisers for the actual transaction and operations.
