National Retail Properties (NYSE:NNN), a Florida-based real estate investment trust, is a "solid REIT investment" and a "long-term dividend player",InvestorPlace wrote in an analysis published on March 8, which takes a closer look at the company. The REIT has lifted its dividend payments for 23 years in a row and prides itself on being one of the 104 American companies out of 10,000, which have replica rolex wateches managed to do that so. National Retail Properties was one of the few REITs that didn't reduce their distributions during the financial meltdown of 2007-2009. The real estate investment trust is focused on single-tenant properties let to recognised retailers under a triple-net lease. In this way the tenant must pay all ongoing operating expenses associated with the property, while the lessor receives a flat rent amount which might be increased depending on price inflation and store sales. According to InvestorPlace, this arrangement allows for a very stable source of income. The REIT primarily replica rolex watches looks to acquire properties in main street locations, which see their rent increase more often and easily attract tenants. National Retail Properties has a portfolio of 1,530 properties across the US with a gross leasable area of approximately 19.2 million sq. ft. Occupancy rates for the past ten years have remained range-bound between 97 percent and 98 percent with the only exception occurring in 2009, when occupancy fell to 96.40 percent. Future growth in the real estate investment trust is expected to come from acquisitions - in 2010 the company purchased $238 million (¡ê160 million) worth of properties, in 2011 an additional $767 million (¡ê516 million) and inthe first three rolex replecas quarters of 2012 - $431 million (¡ê290 million). People willing to invest through National Retail Properties can make use of the company's DRIP plan, which has a minimum investment of $100 (¡ê67).
