Lease
A contract in which, for a rent payment, the one entitled to the possession of the real property (lessor) transfers those rights to another (lessee) for a specified period of time.
Leveraged Return
The use of various financial instruments or borrowed capital, such as a loan, to increase the potential return of an investment.
Loan-to-Value
A lending risk assessment ratio that financial institutions and others lenders examine before approving a mortgage. The LTV is calculated by dividing the amount of the loan by the value of the property. Typically, assessments with high LTV ratios are generally seen as higher risk and, therefore, if the mortgage is accepted, the loan will generally cost the borrower more to borrow (reflected as a higher interest rate).
