• We’ve been fighting excess cleaning charges. We had a cleaner. CBRE brought their own cleaner on site without notice and sent a bill to us for it.
• Claimed we were in breach of lease for not paying the bill. They would not issue a new lease while we were in breach.

• Managed to negotiate water rates out of lease terms. Still would need to pay them.
• Signed terms with water rates taken out in hopes of disputing water charges.

• No reference in lease to terms document. This would allow for expenses to be charged to us.
• Landlord claimed other tenants signed leases as-is.
• We were told we would receive an updated lease.

• We don’t know why they have chosen to terminate.
• Communication breakdown between us and EDQ/CBRE
