“The market for single-tenant, triple-net-leased properties is robust,” West said in an announceme­nt. “Private investors like the idea of ‘mailbox money’ — receiving a monthly rent check with no management responsibi­lity. We continue to see buyer pools increase, especially for properties such as this that are supported by a best-inclass tenant in one of Houston’s most sought-after suburbs.”
