A high-quality shopping center draws in crowds, providing a space for people to gather, shop, and fulfill various needs. Besides creating a desirable tenant-mix, a clean, safe, and aesthetically pleasing environment generates foot traffic, ultimately generating additional revenue for your tenants, finally leading to increased rent for the property owner. One key to maintaining this flow of traffic and repeat customers lies in the upkeep of the shopping center’s common areas. In real estate we simply call the term Common Area Maintenance, also known as CAM. CAM on a basic level involves keeping common areas like parking lots, landscaping, and sidewalks clean and well-kept. This enhances aesthetic appeal, improves safety and security, extends the longevity of infrastructure, promotes a positive brand image for the shopping center and its tenants, and increases customer dwell time and spending. For high-end or trophy shopping centers, common area maintenance could additionally include, changing out seasonal decor, maintaining a small park, maintaining outdoor seating for a food hall, hosting various events such as live music and more! Let's explore how these factors contribute to more customers, happier tenants and increased rent.

When leasing commercial property, tenants, landlords, and property managers often encounter the term, CAM fees. CAM fees are a crucial aspect of many commercial leases.
