Commercial property for lease is far and away the most active sector of the commercial real estate market as most commercial property tenants chose the commercial lease rather than to purchase a commercial office building. There are more than a few ways commercial property for lease is offered in the United States.

The Full Service commercial real estate lease is predominately used for commercial office space for lease in “multi tenant” office buildings.

The Triple-Net lease (NNN) is typically a structure you will see for a single tenant office, R&D, or industrial building. However, the NNN lease is sometimes used elsewhere under other commercial lease scenarios. Landlords often prefer the NNN lease because the tenant is responsible for all aspects of the real estate except for (in most cases) the building foundation. It is difficult to use a NNN lease in a multi tenant building with many tenants sharing electrical and mechanical systems. Yet, it can be done and on occasion you will see Commercial property for lease under the NNN lease structure with all tenants using house power and dividing up the cost no matter who uses what.

The Gross Lease is a hybrid commercial lease where the commercial real estate tenant pays the base rent and some of the other building operating expenses. For example, the tenant will of course pay the base rent and may be obligated to pay electrical and cleaning while the landlord pays the property taxes, maintenance, and other utilities like garbage and water. There are many variations of the Gross Lease wherever you find Commercial property for lease.
