On today's episode of The Restaurant Realty in 10 host, Michael Carro, explains special lease details to consider as you re-sign a long-term restaurant tenant.

He walks you through a conversation he recently had with a friend who wanted advice on how to retain a great restaurant tenant and put himself in a position where selling the building as a NNN investment may be possible in the future.

If your goal has changed from “long-term hold” to considering selling a leased property as a NNN investment here are a few tips from today’s episode:

  • Consider a below-market lease rate and negotiating building improvements such as improved signage or covering patios
  • Set annual lease increases to bring the lease to market value over time
  • Creating an Absolute NNN lease where the tenant is responsible for all building upkeep
  • Having an initial lease term of 10 -years

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
