What is a Triple Net Lease?

A Triple Net Lease is common for retail shopping center leases. A triple net lease requires tenants to pay - in addition to rent - a proportionate share of the expenses for the shopping center’s maintenance, taxes and insurance. Each tenant’s proportionate share is calculated as a percentage of the space leased compared to the total square footage of the shopping center and is paid along with or in addition to the minimum rent for your total monthly payment. The “triple” in Triple Net refers to 1) Common Area Maintenance, 2) Real Estate Taxes and 3) Insurance.

What is Common Area Maintenance?

Common Area Maintenance services (and expenses) include items such as trash removal, snow removal, grounds maintenance, parking lot maintenance and more. All Triplet Net expenses are paid on a monthly basis. Common Area Maintenance services are provided by Robyn Property Management. Click here to find your Property Manager for your center.

What is Minimum Rent?

Minimum Rent is the negotiated, agreed upon monthly rent for space leased in a retail center.

What do I need to prepare from a financial standpoint?

All leases require a simple financial statement showing tenant assets (cash, investments, etc.) and liabilities (financial obligations). Your accountant can complete this analysis or you can simply download this form and complete. Click here for a financial statement form.

What else does Compass Real Estate need to consider my tenancy in their properties?

To ensure the financial strength of its tenant community, Compass Real Estate may request prospective tenants to complete its Consent Form enabling the company to obtain a consumer report and other information. The Consent Form can be found here.
