Rent Types
The rent amount and type that the tenant (lessee) will be responsible to pay to the landlord (lessor) throughout the lease term is negotiated prior to both parties signing a lease agreement. The rent type will vary depending upon the services provided. For example, triple net rents are typically lower than full service rents due to additional expenses the tenant is required to pay in addition to the base rent. Contact the listing broker for a full understanding of any associated costs or additional expenses for each rent type.
1. Full Service: A rental rate that includes normal building standard services as provided by the landlord within a base year rental.
2. Double Net (NN): Tenant pays for only two of the building expenses; the landlord and tenant determine the specific expenses prior to signing the lease agreement.

The company's love for doing what they do started in 1985 with their first restaurant, Tio Juan’s, in Concord, NH. The first Margaritas Mexican Restaurant followed soon thereafter in Orono, Maine with their first partner Stan Bagley. A few months later, John's 21-year-old brother Dave Pelletier partnered up with them and, with help from many people, started opening more locations in Maine and New Hampshire. With John lining up new locations and Dave concentrating on operations and their guests, things began to heat up and really take shape. The Margaritas family grew every year, with amazing people having a lot of fun making fajitas, tacos, and shaking Margaritas. They knew if their restaurants were going to be special, they needed more Mexico in the recipe than anyone else. Today’s Margaritas is a summation of all they have learned so far. They look forward to many more decades of icy Margaritas, delicious Mexican food, and good times while making memories with their customers.
