This is a Form of Ground Lease. It is a net lease. The Lessee is responsible for all taxes, insurance, repairs, etc. in addition to basic rent. At the end of the term of the lease, any and all improvements belong to the Lessor. This lease is designed to be more favorable to the Lessor of the property.
This Form may be used in connection with a transaction between unrelated parties, as well as one where the party owning the land is, through another entity, the owner of, or involved with the improvements to the property. The latter use suggests estate planning possibilities where, through flexible and divided ownership (the business and the property), it may be possible for a person owning both a business interest and valuable property to satisfy multiple beneficiaries without sacrificing either the interests of those who wish to inherit the business and those who do not – but who “expect” an equal, or at least an equitable division of the owner’s assets.
