Net Lease Properties for Investments

Net Lease Properties Information

One type is the Single Net Lease transaction.
In a single net lease (sometimes shortened to Net or N), the lessee or tenant is responsible for paying property taxes as well as the base rent. Double Net Lease and triple-net leases (NNN Commercial Real Estate) are more common forms of net leases because all or the majority of the expenses are passed on the tenant.

Some points on the Double Net Lease.
In a double net lease (Net-Net or NN) the lessee or tenant is responsible for real estate taxes and building insurance. The lessor or landlord is responsible for any expenses incurred for structural repairs and common area maintenance. "Roof and structure" is sometimes calculated as a reserve, on these types of Net Lease Properties.

Finally our favorite of all the Net Lease Properties is the Triple Net Lease!
A (Net-Net-Net or NNN) is a lease agreement on a property where the tenant or lessee agrees to pay all real estate taxes, building insurance, and maintenance (the three 'Nets') on the property in addition to any normal fees that are expected under the agreement (rent, etc.). In such a lease, the tenant or lessee is responsible for all costs associated with the repair and maintenance of any common area of that particular Net Lease Property.
