Explanation
A triple net (NNN) lease requires the tenant to pay base rent plus all three major expense categories: property taxes, insurance, and maintenance (operating expenses). This transfers most ownership costs to the tenant, making NNN leases very popular for Pennsylvania retail and commercial investment properties.
