CAM Billing Considerations

  • Indiana circuit breaker caps (3% of assessed value for commercial) limit tax liability
  • Life sciences corridor (Lilly, Roche) drives specialized lab space demand
  • Massive logistics/distribution hub — Indianapolis is top US industrial market per capita
  • Trending-based reassessment model can lag market significantly
  • County assessor consolidation has created uneven assessment quality
