What does a tenant typically pay in addition to the base rent in a net lease?

In a net lease, tenants typically agree to pay not only the base rent but also a portion of the property taxes, insurance, and potentially some maintenance costs associated with the property. This structured arrangement allows landlords to reduce their financial burden by shifting some of the operating expenses to the tenant, which is a characteristic feature of net leases.

Thus, the correct choice reflects the common understanding of the additional financial responsibilities that tenants assume under this type of lease. By paying a portion of property taxes and insurance, tenants play an active role in the overall costs of maintaining the property, which is in line with the net lease structure.

The other choices, while they may relate to various costs associated with leasing property, do not encapsulate the core concept of a net lease where the tenant takes on variable ongoing expenses beyond just the base rent.
