Core concepts

Fixed-rate long-duration debt

Inflation deflates debt in real terms.

Rent escalators

Annual rent increases track inflation.

Examples

  • 30-year fixed at 4% + 5% annual rent growth = expanding real yield.

Practical applications

  • Long-horizon investors.
  • Wealth preservation strategies.

Common mistakes

  • Floating-rate exposure during high inflation.
  • Lease structures without escalators.
