\"Commercial<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Commercial real estate doesn’t slow down between quarters, and neither does Yardi. Whether you’re managing a high-rise office tower, a mixed-use development or a sprawling industrial portfolio, the pressure to move faster, reduce errors and get more from your team is constant. That’s why every quarter, we focus on delivering updates that meet clients where the work actually happens: in the platform, mid-workflow and under deadline. From AI-powered lease abstraction to smarter construction cost accruals, Q1 brings meaningful improvements across leasing, budgeting, asset management and beyond. Here’s a look at what’s new in the Yardi Commercial Suite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smart Lease<\/strong>: Lease abstraction in seconds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Lease abstraction has never been a fast process: tracking down documents, manually entering data and double-checking every clause takes time. It pulls your team away from higher-value work before a tenant has even moved in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smart Lease solves exactly that. It uses AI to read and extract key lease data directly within Yardi Voyager, which means no separate tool needed, no copy-paste, no rekeying. Upload a lease and critical terms like rent, options and key dates are identified and mapped to the right fields automatically. The result is faster onboarding, fewer data entry errors and more time for teams to focus on the work that matters. Learn more about Smart Lease<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

Virtuoso Support<\/strong>: AI help that meets users where they work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When a staff member hits a snag mid-workflow, waiting on a support ticket isn\u2019t always an option. Virtuoso support is now available across the Commercial Suite. It brings an AI-powered agent directly into the platform to help users resolve routine questions, navigate workflows and find documentation right where they\u2019re working.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Virtuoso<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Early results<\/strong>: a 78% resolution rate without live escalation. Plus, 92% user satisfaction across hundreds of clients and tens of thousands of users. Learn more about Virtuoso support<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deal Manager<\/strong>: See every deal in real time<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Closing deals requires visibility at every stage. Several updates to Deal Manager this quarter make that easier than ever. The new milestone dashboard gives leasing and asset management teams a real-time view of deal progress across the pipeline. It offers filtering by assignee, property or date range. Teams can quickly spot overdue milestones and at-risk deals before they become a problem.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Deal<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Benchmarking is more flexible too. Import benchmarks at the space, property or market level and designate primary and secondary data sources, so every deal is evaluated against real numbers. For teams managing broker relationships, listing agreements are now fully integrated into the deal workflow, along with support for both month-to-month and fixed-term structures, commission tracking by lease type and drill-down reporting across properties and portfolios. Learn more about Deal Manager<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Forecast Manager<\/strong>: Allocations, floor plans & loan modeling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Building a property budget involves a lot of moving parts, and until now some of them required jumping back into Voyager. Two updates coming this spring close that gap. You can now allocate budget data using core GL allocation templates directly in Forecast Manager, and a new integration with Floorplan Manager lets you view floor plans right inside the property budget for added context while you work.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Forecast<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

We also added the ability to create copies of real loans for what-if analysis. Want to model a refinance at a different interest rate and see how it plays out across the full budget? Now you can, without touching your actual loan data. Learn more about Forecast Manager<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yardi Floorplan Manager<\/strong>: Area calculations for mixed-use buildings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Getting area calculations right matters more than most teams realize. Common area distributions shift over time, which means a space can carry a different calculated area at renewal even if the walls haven\u2019t moved. If you\u2019re leasing on outdated numbers, you may be leaving revenue on the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two new additions help address that. For mixed-use buildings, you can now calculate areas across office and ground-floor retail within a single structure using recognized industry standards \u2014 no outside consultant required. New dashboard tiles and reports let you compare calculated areas against what\u2019s recorded in Voyager, so you can spot discrepancies and identify opportunities before the next renewal cycle. Learn more about Floorplan Manager<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Construction Manager<\/strong>: Capture costs before the invoice arrives<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Month-end close gets complicated when construction costs are still in flight. New construction accruals give accounting teams a dedicated tool to record costs that haven\u2019t arrived as a payable yet. Nothing gets missed while waiting on vendor invoices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Managing construction loan draws is more flexible this quarter too. Funding sources can now be updated as they change over the life of a job. This reflects the reality that most construction projects look different at close than they did at ground-break. Learn more about Construction Manager<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Yardi Commercial Suite<\/strong>: One platform, one connected workflow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Every update in this release is designed around the same idea: less time on manual processes, more time on the decisions that move your portfolio forward. Whether it’s abstracting a lease in seconds instead of hours, resolving a workflow question without waiting on support or modeling a refinance scenario without touching live data, these tools are built to reduce friction where it costs you most and help you drive performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We remain committed to building on this foundation each quarter. Questions about any of these solutions? Visit Yardi Client Central<\/a> to access training resources and release notes.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
