Investment Highlights

  • The guarantor is ARKO Corp., the sixth-largest U.S. convenience-store operator with approximately 3,500 locations, providing publicly accountable, investment-relevant credit support.
  • The three-mile average household income of $160,006 and 3.8 percent poverty rate reflect an unusually affluent rural catchment area.
  • Louisa County posted 11.4 percent population growth from 2020 to 2024, outpacing most nonmetro Virginia peers and supporting long-term demand.

Key Risks

  • Six competing gas stations within one mile create a highly saturated fuel retail environment that pressures volume and renewal probability.
  • At 4.8 years of remaining term with no disclosed rent at expiration, rollover timing and re-leasing economics carry significant underwriting uncertainty.
  • The effective one-mile population of zero makes the site entirely dependent on pass-through traffic, leaving income vulnerable to any routing or infrastructure changes along James Madison Highway.

Executive Summary

This Fas Mart-branded convenience store and gas station in Gordonsville, Virginia offers a net lease backed by GPM Investments, LLC, a subsidiary of publicly traded ARKO Corp., with 4.8 years of remaining term through May 2031. The site earns a location grade of 59 out of 100, reflecting adequate but not exceptional real estate fundamentals. At $114,756 in annual base rent against a 5,896 SF building, the asset presents moderate income stability with near-term rollover exposure.

Demographics

The immediate one-mile population is effectively zero, confirming a rural highway intercept trade area rather than a residential node. The three-mile ring shows 4,255 residents with a notably high average household income of $160,006 and a median home value of $477,000, signaling an affluent but sparse surrounding base. The five-mile population of 10,886 at a density of 139 per square mile reinforces the low-density, drive-to nature of this location.

Market Context

Louisa County is classified nonmetro rural but metro-adjacent, and its population grew 11.4 percent from 2020 to 2024, reaching 42,109, which is a meaningful growth signal for a rural county. Unemployment sits at a tight 2.9 percent across a modest base of 8,304 total employees. The county's growth trajectory and proximity to the Richmond-Charlottesville corridor provide a constructive but not robust commercial backdrop.

Location Quality

The site sits 0.01 miles from a major road with 20,000 vehicles per day in annual average daily traffic, providing consistent highway intercept exposure. However, six competing gas stations within one mile and four within a half mile represent a saturated fuel retail environment. Walk and bike scores of 27 and 28 confirm full car dependency, appropriate for the format but limiting any non-vehicle customer capture.

Risk Factors

FEMA designates the site Zone X, indicating minimal flood hazard. State-level crime data was unavailable, limiting a complete safety assessment. No material environmental or structural flags were identified in the available data set.

Investment Positioning

With 4.8 years remaining and a single four-year renewal option, a buyer faces meaningful rollover risk in the near to medium term, and the notice deadline of November 2030 provides limited runway. Rent at expiration data is unavailable, making rent growth underwriting opaque. GPM Investments as guarantor, backed by ARKO Corp., a Nasdaq-listed operator of roughly 3,500 sites, provides institutional-grade credit quality that partially offsets the lease term risk.
