370 Pinewood Road is a 2,416 SF Fas Mart convenience store and gas station in Sumter, SC, operated by GPM Investments under a lease running through March 2031 with 4.6 years of remaining term. The site scores 59 out of 100 on location grade, reflecting a serviceable but not dominant trade area position. At $122,013 in annual base rent, the asset offers near-term income visibility backed by a publicly traded guarantor, though competitive density and modest traffic temper upside.
The immediate one-mile population of 4,647 at a density of 1,479 per square mile is workable for a convenience format, and average household income of $74,523 within one mile is adequate. The three-mile ring expands to 31,376 residents with average household income of $79,044 and 73% owner occupancy, suggesting a relatively stable base. Poverty reaches 15% at the five-mile ring, which is a modest headwind to per-visit ticket size.
Sumter County is a small metro market with a shrinking population, declining from 105,493 in 2020 to 104,776 in 2024, and carries a 5.2% unemployment rate above the national average. The county's 1,821 total establishments and 30,656 employees reflect a limited commercial base. These macro conditions constrain organic demand growth and reduce re-tenanting optionality if the space becomes vacant.
Traffic at 13,800 vehicles per day is below the threshold typically preferred for top-tier gas station net lease assets, and three competing stations within a half mile create meaningful volume pressure. The walk score of 55 and proximity to 20 restaurants and 19 retail tenants within one mile indicate a functional but fragmented commercial corridor. Daytime employment density of 1,187 jobs within one mile is thin, limiting captive commuter fuel demand.
The site faces a FEMA Zone X designation, meaning minimal flood exposure, which is a genuine positive. However, six competing gas stations within one mile represent significant saturation for a modest-traffic location. No crime data was available for state-level benchmarking, leaving that risk dimension unquantified.
With 4.6 years remaining and one renewal option, the buyer faces a rollover event by March 2031 with a September 2030 notice deadline, requiring near-term re-leasing or extension dialogue. No rent escalation to expiration is disclosed, meaning the $50.50 per square foot rent is effectively flat for the hold period, limiting income growth. GPM Investments, guaranteed by Nasdaq-listed ARKO Corp., the sixth-largest U.S. convenience operator, provides institutional-grade credit quality that partially offsets the short remaining term and competitive site conditions.
