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

625 Montana Avenue represents a rare opportunity to secure a high-quality presence at one of the most prominent locations along Santa Monica’s premier neighborhood retail corridor. Positioned at the western gateway to Montana Avenue, the property is one of the first retail destinations encountered by customers traveling east from Ocean Avenue and the beach, providing exceptional visibility and exposure to both pedestrian and vehicular traffic. The location benefits from Montana Avenue’s affluent residential base, strong local spending power, and highly complementary mix of premium retailers, restaurants, wellness providers, and neighborhood services. The property offers two distinct leasing opportunities: a ±1,330 SF endcap and a ±1,260 SF inline space. The corner endcap occupies a highly visible position directly adjacent to the property’s rare on-site parking lot, providing convenient access for customers and employees and a meaningful competitive advantage in a corridor where dedicated parking is extremely limited. Its prominent positioning and direct relationship to the parking lot also create the potential for a café, restaurant, or hospitality-oriented concept with a patio component. The ±1,260 SF inline space offers a more dramatic retail environment, featuring exceptionally high ceilings and a skylight that creates a bright, open, and distinctive interior. Montana Avenue continues to strengthen as a premier Westside neighborhood destination, with an increasingly elevated tenant mix that includes brands such as Free People, Sundays, Warby Parker, The Window, Barefoot Dreams, and Pop’s Bagels. The corridor combines the character and walkability of a neighborhood main street with the purchasing power of one of Los Angeles’ most affluent residential markets. The recent influx of consumers from Pacific Palisades into Santa Monica has further increased the Avenue’s relevance and customer base. Adding to the property’s strong positioning, 625 Montana sits directly across the street from Primo Passo, one of Montana Avenue’s most popular and recognizable coffee shops. The coffee shop serves as a consistent daily traffic driver and neighborhood gathering point, creating an immediate and highly complementary amenity for the property. With limited competing availability, rare on-site parking, prominent gateway positioning, and two highly differentiated spaces, 625 Montana Avenue offers a unique opportunity for a tenant seeking visibility and a strong connection to Santa Monica’s established and growing customer base.
