Commercial Real Estate Investing & The Triple Net lease

Commercial real estate investing is a type of real estate investing which involves the purchase of real estate property for use in commercial purposes. Commercial real estate is typically defined as real estate that encompasses more than one piece of property.

Commercial real estate investing usually includes the purchase of buildings or warehouses that a company can do business in. With this type of real estate investing, the tenant (company) will pay the real estate investor (owner of the property) a rental fee to do business in the building.
Commercial real estate properties can include buildings or parts of buildings like office suites, stores or clubs. Rental properties, owning residential properties can also be considered commercial real estate. Residential properties that can be considered as commercial real estate are things like apartment complexes.

Although apartment complexes are residential properties, they are considered to be commercial real estate because they are multi-tenant dwellings. Commercial real estate investing that includes things like offices and warehouses are great investments.

Office and warehouse investments are great commercial investments because the tenants have triple net lease that allow you to collect rent, while the tenant pays for maintenance, insurance and taxes on the property.

A triple net lease will maximize your cash flow because it decreases your expenses. Cash flow is the amount of money the piece of real estate property generates (from rent) and the expenses to keep the property maintained.
With investing, especially with investing in rental property, you often have to pay taxes on the property as well as pay for any type of maintenance the property needs.

Investing in commercial real estate properties like offices and warehouses will provide you a regular income from rental payments while decreasing your expenses.

Another type of commercial real estate investing involves the purchase of retail centers. Retail centers can include shopping centers, and malls. Like office and warehouse real estate properties, retail centers also offer triple net leases.
Because retail centers offer long term triple net leases, your rate of return will not go down as taxes and expenses go up. As the rent goes up over time, your rate of return will continue to get higher.

Commercial investing can also be used to invest in real estate like hotels and resorts. This type of real estate investing is better for experienced real estate investors. A great way to get into commercial real estate investing with hotels and resorts is to invest in the property, then lease it out to another company.

When you lease out the hotel or resort property, the company will then run the hotel. The reason for this is that running a business is completely different from real estate investing; and running a hotel or resort is a business, not an investment.

Another type of real estate investing involves land development. Land development is one of the most exciting forms of commercial real estate. Land development involves taking undeveloped land that is not yet ready for building and improving its value. With land development, it is best to start small and then work your way up to larger land purchases.

Commercial real estate is all about the return on investment, the deal and the terms. Investing in commercial real estate is a great way to generate revenue. Since a lot of commercial real estate properties have long-term triple net leases, investing in commercial real estate will increase your rate of return. With a long-term triple net lease, you will not be faced with the number of expenses that some other forms of commercial real estate offer.
