I.E.
A commercial real estate lease in which the tenant pays a fixed amount of rent per month or year, regardless of the landlord’s operating costs, such as maintenance, taxes and insurance. a gross lease closely resembles the typical residential lease. the tenant may agree to a “gross lease with stops,” meaning that the tenant will pitch in if the landlord’s operating costs rise above a certain level. in real estate lingo, the point when the tenant starts to contribute is called the “stop level,” because thats where the landlords share of the costs stops.
