I am looking at leasing an office space for myself. Have been looking at a few and found a few that I like. I have heard the term “Triple Net Lease” thrown around and I’m not sure what it means…can someone expound? Thanks

in simplest terms, it means a lease where the tenant pays the insurance, property taxes and maintenance. the owner gets a rent check, and has no operating expenses.

Typically, the taxes, insurance and maintenace are listed as CAM (common area management, which includes what Jimmy said) and are in addition to your rent.

In addition, if you are a tenant in a multi-tenant building, you will typically have a pro-rated share of the total building expenses. Some expenses will be based on your percentage of space leased and others are divided by the number of tenants.

In a multi-tenant building, typically the landlord or the landlord’s management agents coordinate everything and pays for it using the CAM.
