Triple-net Lease

By on January 15, 2019

A triple-net lease, commonly known as NNN lease, is a type of commercial tenancy contract in which the tenant agrees to be responsible in paying for all costs and expenses associated with operating the property in addition to the rental.

The extra expenses can include:

  • Property tax
  • Insurance
  • Maintenance fees
  • etc

They can basically include all fixed costs and variable costs.

In a triple net lease, the tenant assumes responsibility for these additional costs, making it different from other types of leases where the landlord is typically responsible for such expenses. This type of lease is more common in commercial real estate properties like retail centers, office buildings, and industrial complexes.

One key benefit of a such leases for the landlord is predictable cash flow since the tenant is responsible for variable costs associated with property ownership. On the other hand, tenants benefit from more control over the property and can customize maintenance and services according to their needs.

It is crucial for both parties to clearly outline the responsibilities and obligations in the lease agreement to avoid any misunderstandings or disputes in the future.

Due diligence in understanding the terms and conditions of a triple net lease is essential for both landlords and tenants to ensure a mutually beneficial arrangement.

In certain cases, the tenant might even be required to pay for the interest on the mortgage for the landlord.

Sometimes also referred to simply as net lease, a tenant must be certain of what he is doing before signing up for a triple-net lease as expenses can take up a bulk to total expenses of renting the property.

Overall, a triple net lease provides a unique approach to commercial real estate leasing, offering advantages for both landlords and tenants seeking a more transparent and cost-effective leasing structure.
