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. Plus Electric: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of the electrical cost in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Electric & Cleaning: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of the electrical and cleaning cost in addition to the rent. 4. Plus Utilities and Char: A type of Modified Gross Lease where the tenant is responsible for their proportional share of the utilities and cleaning cost in addition to the rent. 4. Industrial Gross: A type of Modified Gross lease where the tenant pays one or more of the expenses in addition to the rent. The landlord and tenant determine these prior to signing the lease agreement.

5. Tenant Electric: The landlord pays for all services and the tenant is responsible for their usage of lights and electrical outlets in the space they occupy.

6. Negotiable or Upon Request: Used when the leasing contact does not provide the rent or service type.

7. TBD: To be determined; used for buildings for which no rent or service type is known, commonly utilized when the buildings are not yet built.

About the Property

Located at 253 7th Street West, St. Paul, MN 55102, this premier property offers an outstanding restaurant leasing opportunity in one of the most desirable and high-traffic areas of St. Paul. The site is surrounded by major demand drivers including Xcel Energy Center (Grand Casino Arena), United Hospital, the Science Museum of Minnesota, the State Capitol, Downtown St. Paul, and numerous newly constructed apartment communities, ensuring consistent foot traffic and visibility. The first floor is fully built out and turnkey as the former Downtowner Woodfire Grill, a highly successful restaurant that operated at this location for nearly 40 years. The owner retired after decades of operation, leaving behind a proven restaurant space that historically generated close to $4 million in annual sales year after year. This is a rare opportunity for an operator to step into a space with an established layout and strong market fundamentals, allowing for a faster and more cost-effective opening. The second floor consists of approximately 6,500 square feet of shell space, offering additional flexibility for expansion, private dining, event space, offices, or future concepts. This is an exceptional opportunity to lease a high-profile, turnkey restaurant space in the heart of Downtown St. Paul with long-term upside. For additional leasing information, please contact Eddy.
