What Happens at the End of a Ground Lease?
Ground leases are much longer than other real estate leases; they can last up to 99 years, depending on the arrangement. The minimum length of time for such an arrangement is 30 years. The timing allows the ground lease tenant enough time to build a structure or renovate an existing one and earn enough revenue to break even and eventually make a profit. Additionally, lenders might require a longer lease; oftentimes the terms of a lease can be longer than the loan terms.
Who Owns the Building in a Ground Lease?
The idea behind a ground lease is that a landowner owns vacant land, and leases that land to a tenant (which can also be a developer). The tenant then builds a structure on the site, while paying monthly rent to the landowner to occupy the acreage.
What Is a Zero Net Lease?
A Zero net lease is a type of commercial property lease. It falls within the category of N leases, where the N stands for net. These include single net lease (N), double net lease (NN), and triple (NNN) net leases. The zero net lease is a type of NNN lease.
What Is the Difference Between a Net Lease and a Triple Net Lease?
Lease types vary along a spectrum from gross to absolute, with quite a few stops in between. Among the common ones are Single Net, Double Net, and Triple Net. These are often referred to using the “N” corresponding to their characterization.
What Are the Benefits and Disadvantages of a Ground Lease?
We’ve written about land ownership in previous blogs. Specifically, we’ve pointed out that owning land, in and of itself, could be considered a negative income business. This means that if it’s undeveloped, you won’t earn much from it, but still need to pay taxes and costs for maintenance.
Determining Triple-Net Property Costs
What do the Starbucks on the corner, the Dollar General on the south side of town, and the bank in the regional shopping center have in common? They’re all classified as “retail.” And there’s a good chance that all of them operate under some kind of net-lease agreement. There are three types of net-lease agreements, ranging from single-net to triple net, or NNN.
Does a Landlord Need Insurance in a Triple Net Lease?
The idea behind a lease containing “nets” is that a tenant takes on at least some of the costs of day-to-day property operations, maintenance, and repair. In many cases, this also means that the tenant might take on insurance costs connected with the property.
Do Triple Net (NNN) Properties Appreciate?
There can be two benefits to investing in real estate properties. The first is potential cash flow generated by rents. The second is the possible increase in value, known as real estate appreciation. Property appreciation means you could generate a profit—or capital gain—when you sell the asset.
Does a Triple Net Lease (NNN) Include Property Taxes?
Commercial real estate investors may find the terms of a triple net (NNN) lease agreeable to their goals. This lease agreement can help lower commercial investors’ risk and provide steady income while offering tenants a cost-effective solution.
What Is the Difference Between a Triple Net (NNN) and a Full Service Lease?
As an investor in commercial real estate, you know that ownership is never risk-free or without effort required. There is typically significant effort necessary to manage your properties, even if you engage professional assistance. Still, some assets are more labor-intense than others, and the type of lease you use can make a big difference. Let's look at the difference between a triple net (NNN) lease and a full-service lease and how the choice can affect you.
