NETSTREIT Corp.
NETSTREIT Corp. is an internally managed U.S. REIT that acquires, owns, and manages single-tenant retail properties leased on a long-term net basis to creditworthy tenants. Its portfolio is built around necessity-based and e-commerce-resistant retail formats such as grocers, convenience stores, discount stores, home improvement, quick-service restaurants, general retail, and auto parts.

Business
Share of revenueSingle-tenant commercial retail properties leased on a long-term net basis to tenants.
Loans secured by real estate that generate interest income alongside rental revenue.
Build-to-suit and development projects where rent has not yet commenced or is under construction.
Sales of real estate assets used to recycle capital and manage portfolio quality.
Customers
NETSTREIT’s tenants are retail operators that need physical locations to drive sales, especially in necessity and essential-service categories. The company emphasizes high-credit-quality and investment-grade tenants, but also leases to creditworthy non-investment-grade operators where it sees attractive risk-adjusted returns.
Grocers, convenience stores, and discount retailers that buy long-term store locations because they are resilient through cycles.
Quick-service restaurants, auto parts, and home improvement operators that need physical sites to support recurring demand.
Tenants with strong credit profiles that support lower lease risk and more stable cash flows.
Operators without formal investment-grade ratings that still fit the company’s underwriting and yield targets.
Strategy
NETSTREIT’s strategy is to keep scaling a diversified net-lease portfolio by sourcing marketed and off-market deals through long-standing industry relationships. It also uses build-to-suit partnerships and selective mortgage lending to improve yields and broaden capital deployment options while maintaining REIT discipline.
Growth depends on efficiently deploying capital into durable assets with long lease terms and creditworthy tenants.
Tenant, sector, and state concentration can materially affect cash flow if a large tenant or region weakens.
These structures can provide higher yields and broaden the company’s investment toolkit beyond plain-vanilla acquisitions.
Geography
NETSTREIT operates almost entirely in the United States and had investments in 45 states as of year-end 2025. The portfolio is concentrated in the South and Midwest, with Texas, Illinois, New York, Georgia, Wisconsin, and North Carolina representing the largest state exposures by ABR, which makes regional economic and weather-related disruptions important to monitor.
Risks
The main risks come from tenant credit, geographic concentration, and the sensitivity of net-lease cash flows to interest rates and capital markets access. Because the portfolio is concentrated in defensive retail and in certain states, a regional downturn, tenant failure, or property damage event could affect occupancy, rent collection, and asset values.
- Tenant concentrationImpact: HighLikelihood: Medium
A small number of tenants can represent a meaningful share of ABR, so one tenant problem can reduce rent and occupancy.
Exposure: Top 10 tenants and large single-tenant leases
- Geographic concentrationImpact: HighLikelihood: Medium
A large share of ABR is concentrated in Texas, the South, and the Midwest, increasing exposure to regional shocks.
Exposure: Texas 17.3% of ABR; South 49.5%; Midwest 28.0%
- Interest rate and financing riskImpact: HighLikelihood: Medium
The business uses debt to fund acquisitions, so higher borrowing costs can compress returns and reduce acquisition capacity.
Exposure: Senior unsecured term loans and ongoing capital markets access
- Property damage and insurance coverageImpact: MediumLikelihood: Medium
Physical retail assets can suffer losses from fires, floods, foundation issues, or other damage, and insurance may not fully cover them.
Exposure: Single-tenant retail properties across the U.S.
- Cybersecurity and third-party dependenceImpact: MediumLikelihood: Medium
The company relies on vendors and systems to process and store data, creating operational and data-security exposure.
