One of the commercial zones in North Andover is the General Business District which allows for certain types of businesses.

Special Purpose

Special purpose properties play a large role in our everyday life. A special purpose property typically is appropriate for one use or limited use. It may have a unique physical design, special construction materials, or a layout. It is a building that cannot be converted to another use without a large capital investment although there is a growing trend to transform some special purpose properties into new types of businesses such as turning a gas station into a burger joint or a church into condominiums but generally speaking a special purpose property can only be used for certain things.

Types of special purpose property

Examples of a special purpose commercial property are a church, theater, school, self-storage, car washes, gas station, theme parks, bowling alleys, marinas, campgrounds, theaters, funeral homes, community centers, nursing homes or public utility.

Commercial Leases

There are three basic types of industrial space commercial real estate leases. These leases are organized around two rent calculation methods: “net” and gross.” The gross lease typically means a tenant pays one lump sum for rent, from which the landlord pays his expenses. The net lease has a smaller base rent, with other expenses paid for by the tenant. The modified gross lease is a happy marriage between the two. While terms vary widely building by building, this basic overview will help businesses shop for the best deal possible.
