Rent Types
The rent amount and type that the tenant (lessee) will be responsible to pay to the landlord (lessor) throughout the lease term is negotiated prior to both parties signing a lease agreement. The rent type will vary depending upon the services provided. For example, triple net rents are typically lower than full service rents due to additional expenses the tenant is required to pay in addition to the base rent. Contact the listing broker for a full understanding of any associated costs or additional expenses for each rent type.
1. Full Service: A rental rate that includes normal building standard services as provided by the landlord within a base year rental.
2. Double Net (NN): Tenant pays for only two of the building expenses; the landlord and tenant determine the specific expenses prior to signing the lease agreement.
3. Triple Net (NNN): A lease in which the tenant is responsible for all expenses associated with their proportional share of occupancy of the building.
4. Modified Gross: Modified Gross is a general type of lease rate where typically the tenant will be responsible for their proportional share of one or more of the expenses. The landlord will pay the remaining expenses. See the below list of common Modified Gross rental rate structures: 4. Plus All Utilities: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of utilities in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Cleaning: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of cleaning in addition to the rent. 4.

Anchored by creative offices, breweries, restaurants, and maker spaces, the area attracts a diverse tenant mix. Major employers include Cerner, Harrah’s Casino, and NKC Hospital, drawing consistent daily traffic. The neighborhood offers walkability, bike-friendly streets, and easy access to Downtown Kansas City (5 minutes south). Recent commercial growth along Swift, Armour, and Burlington corridors has increased visibility and demand for small-format retail and flex spaces. Retailers benefit from strong daytime population, mixed-use redevelopment, and residential infill.

The site’s frontage and traffic exposure along Swift create long-term security for retail tenants and a stable asset for portfolio investors. Summary 1535 Swift St combines visibility, flexibility, and neighborhood vibrancy in one of Kansas City’s most dynamic submarkets. Whether repositioned for a boutique retail concept, professional service, or creative studio, this property delivers strong fundamentals and a location poised for continued appreciation.
