Contract Rent refers to the amount of rent that has been explicitly agreed upon in a lease or rental agreement between a tenant and a landlord. It remains fixed over the term stated in the contract unless otherwise adjusted according to specified conditions.
A straight lease, also known as a flat lease, is a type of rental agreement where the tenant pays a fixed rental amount through the duration of the lease term, regardless of changes in property expenses or other variables.
