Conventional wisdom holds that investors looking for a passive income stream need look no further than net lease real estate. After all, with the tenant shouldering most of the property-related expenses, the landlord has little to do but sit back and watch the rent checks roll in. Right? Wrong. When Ben Reinberg, CEO of Taylor Johnson client Alliance Consolidated Group of Companies, penned a piece on the risks associated with net lease investments, we were happy to place the article with REjournals. Drawing on his 25-plus years of experience, Ben explains how this seemingly foolproof asset class can quickly make a fool of unwary investors.

Alliance invests in net lease healthcare assets, such as this property the firm recently acquired in College Station, Texas.
