What Does A Triple Net Lease Include?
The lease structure on a potential investment property means a lot in regards to how much skin you’ll have in the asset. Triple net leases are among the most popular lease agreements in commercial real estate because they shift responsibility for a property’s variable costs and operating expenses from the owner to the tenant.
Why Would a Commercial Landlord Insist on a Triple Net Lease?
A triple net lease (NNN) benefits commercial landlords by reducing the potential risk that comes with a commercial lease. The triple net lease is a lease agreement between a tenant and landlord where the tenant agrees to pay all of the expenses of the property. These expenses include property taxes, property insurance, and maintenance, in addition to rent and utilities.
What is an Absolute Net Lease?
In commercial property investing, there are numerous types of leases with different expense structures. Though not typical, the simplest is a gross lease, in which the tenant pays a base rent, and the owner is responsible for managing all other expenses, including taxes, insurance, maintenance, and repairs. Net leases are more popular than gross, with subtypes single net, double net, triple net, and absolute. Generally speaking, a net lease assigns the following expenses to the tenant:
Are Triple Net Leases Good Investments?

What Is Included In A Triple Net Lease?

What Is A Triple Net Lease Agreement?
Commercial leases take various forms, and the type you choose, either as a tenant or an investor, may impact your financial results. A gross lease means that the landlord (owner) covers all the property's operating expenses with the tenants paying rent for their respective space, perhaps with a load factor for common areas. Sometimes the utility costs are included in the rent, and at other times they are charged separately by the tenant. In a modified gross lease, the tenants pay rent plus a portion of the building’s annual operating expenses, subject to individual negotiations.
What Are Triple Net Fees In A Lease?
Commercial property leases can take several forms. There are fundamental gross leases in which the tenant pays rent and usually utilities. Gross leases are most like residential rentals in that the owner bears the operating costs of the property. There are leases on the opposite end of the spectrum called absolute leases. The tenant assumes responsibility for virtually all property expenses, including real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance, and repairs. Large national clients generally undertake these. In between these extremes are the categories of net leases (single, double, and triple), which shift some operating expenses from the property owner to the tenant or tenants. Typically, a commercial real estate investor may look to one of the net lease options to reduce property oversight and enjoy stable and predictable cash flow.

The Risks of Investing in Single Tenant NNN Properties
“Better safe than sorry” is an adage that often gets overlooked in the world of real estate investing.

What’s a real estate investor with a lower tolerance for risk to do?
What is a Credit Tenant?
Credit tenants generally provide cash flow reliability. These are larger, usually, publicly-traded companies that have investor-grade bond ratings. While that might sound attractive to landlords, it’s important to fully understand what a credit tenant is and which risks they may introduce. In this article, we’ll go over both.
What Is The Difference Between A Double And Triple Net Lease?
The term ‘net lease’ encompasses a group of different lease types. Each net lease type has a specific lease arrangement, which determines whether the landlord or tenant pays for certain expenses. Many people mistakenly group these different net leases together as just “net leased.” The two most common types of net leases are double net (NN) and triple net leases (NNN). They are often mistaken as the same kind of lease. In this article, we’ll look at what makes these two lease types different.
