Net Lease, One of the Few High Yielding Investments

Net lease investment is in for another strong year, according to Spencer Levy of CBRE. Net lease inherently allows investors to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns compared to other investment assets, even other real estate investments. That fact alone will keep the net lease investments in favor this year, but has investors look to mitigate risk in the wake of the pandemic, the asset class has become all the more popular.

“The single scarcest think in the world are large, high-yielding investments. If you look at stocks, bonds, real estate, there are not a lot. On a risk-adjusted basis, net lease provides one of those few avenues where you can get a very good risk-adjusted yield at scale,” Levy, global chief client advisor and senior economic advisor at CBRE, tells GlobeSt.com. Levy is giving his outlook on the net lease investment market this spring at the GlobeSt.com Net Lease conference, held in New York City April 4 and 5.
