The three nets, explained

The Tenant Pays. You Just Collect.

1

Property Taxes

Net One

The tenant is responsible for paying all property taxes directly. Your rent check arrives the same whether the tax bill goes up or down.

2

Building Insurance

Net Two

The tenant carries and pays for property insurance. A claim, a rate increase, a policy change — none of it touches your bottom line.

3

Maintenance & Repairs

Net Three

The tenant handles all upkeep, repairs, and maintenance on the building. No 3AM calls. No contractors. No surprise bills. Ever.

Tom's Story

He Was Exactly
Where You Are Now.

"

A few years ago, I was exactly where you are. I owned a 4-plex with drug dealers, hoarders, and a storage unit that caught fire at 3AM. I thought that was just what being a landlord meant. Then I discovered NNN properties with corporate tenants, and everything changed. Now I help others make the same escape.
