Investopedia explains 'Net Lease'

Property owners use net leases in order to shift the burden of managing taxes, insurance and fees to the tenant, and may charge less rent as a result. Though potential tenants may not have to pay as much rent they are still required to pay taxes and fees regardless of how well their business performs, making this an added risk.
