Abstract

Triple-net leases are legal agreements by which tenants, beyond rent payments, are responsible for operating expenses such as real estate taxes, insurance, and maintenance costs. We examine the relative operational efficiency of Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) holding property portfolios consisting of majority triple-net leases. Results suggest REIT holding triple-net leased portfolios are more operationally efficient than their counterparts. Our results suggest that selecting proper lease expense provisions specifying who carries the obligation of operating expenses is a determining factor of REIT operational efficiency.
