Broadstone Net Lease

“Our consistent results are due in part to our selection of credit-worthy tenants with demonstrated operating history in businesses that are typically recession resistant.”

–Norm Leenhouts, Founder & Senior Advisor

Investment Strategy

Broadstone Net Lease acquires freestanding, single-tenant properties triple-net leased to credit worthy tenants and brands. The portfolio uses conservative leverage and is constructed of long-term leases with contractual rent increases to help withstand economic volatility.

Why triple-net leased properties?

High return relative to risk level assumed
Predictable returns due to tenant responsibilities and long term leases
Opportunity for growth in cash flow and valuation attributable to contractual rent increases
Ability to access favorable debt financing due to predictable cash flows
Growth in rent and ownership of real assets helps to hedge against inflation
Still a very fragmented industry and imperfect market, with opportunities for astute buyers
Opportunity to add value at time of acquisition through proper negotiation and underwriting
