Broadstone Net Lease, Inc.
Broadstone Net Lease, Inc. is an industrial-focused net lease REIT that owns primarily single-tenant commercial properties leased on a long-term basis to a diversified tenant base. Its portfolio is built around properties that are mission-critical to tenants, allowing those tenants to keep operating control while Broadstone collects contractual rent and often passes most property-level expenses through to the tenant. As of year-end 2025, the company owned 771 properties across the United States and Canada, with a mix of industrial and retail assets. The business is designed to grow through rent escalations, tenant-funded capital expenditures, build-to-suit development, and acquisitions of additional net lease properties.
