The usual definition of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) involves an appreciable release of energy that cannot be explained by stellar process. Here we analize the non-stellar continuum and host galaxy properties of about 130 nearby (z≤0.1) AGN of the type Narrow Line Seyfert 1, which are supposed to be at the lower end of black hole masses and at the same time at the highest accretion rates regimes. Our results include determinations of black hole masses, accretion rates, kinematicand state of the ionized gas.
