Investment Highlights

  • Zero competing gas stations exist within one mile, giving this FasMart a monopoly fuel position in its immediate corridor.
  • The lease guarantor is GPM Investments, a subsidiary of publicly traded ARKO Corp., a 3,500-site national operator with SEC reporting obligations.
  • The site carries a FEMA Zone X flood designation, indicating minimal environmental hazard risk to the physical asset.

Key Risks

  • Remaining lease term is only 1.2 years, exposing a buyer to near-term rollover risk with only one renewal option remaining.
  • Bristol city county lost 5.7% of its population between 2020 and 2024, signaling a structurally weakening demand environment for this trade area.
  • Daily traffic of 7,800 vehicles is low relative to institutional fuel-site benchmarks, limiting the site's re-leasing appeal to alternative operators if FasMart vacates.

Executive Summary

This FasMart convenience store and gas station at 2581 King Mill Pike, Bristol, VA is a 2,643 SF net lease asset on 0.43 acres with 1.2 years of remaining term and a single renewal option. The site earns a location grade of STRONG (58/100), supported by zero direct fuel competition within one mile and a publicly traded guarantor, though near-term lease expiration and modest traffic counts temper the investment thesis.

Demographics

The immediate one-mile radius shows no reported population, indicating a sparse residential catchment directly adjacent to the site, while the three-mile ring captures 13,887 residents at an average household income of $68,050 and a 65.2% owner-occupancy rate. The five-mile trade area expands to 25,275 residents, but a poverty rate of approximately 15.9% across both rings suggests a value-oriented consumer base with limited discretionary spending.

Market Context

Bristol city county is a declining small metro, shedding 987 residents between 2020 and 2024, a 5.7% population loss, with a total employment base of only 7,379 workers across 531 establishments. Unemployment sits at a manageable 3.3%, but the shrinking population base limits long-term demand growth for fuel and convenience retail at this location.

Location Quality

Traffic at 7,800 vehicles per day is below the threshold typically associated with high-volume fuel sites, and a Walk Score of 8 confirms near-total auto dependency. Proximity to daytime employment is modest, with 958 jobs within one mile and 9,339 within three miles, providing limited commuter-capture upside.

Risk Factors

The site is located in FEMA Flood Zone X, indicating minimal flood exposure. State-level violent and property crime data were not available for this analysis. No material environmental or discount-store competitive threats were identified within the immediate trade area.

Investment Positioning

With only 1.2 years of term remaining and a renewal notice deadline of March 2027, a buyer acquires near-immediate rollover risk rather than stabilized cash flow. Current rent of $92,631 ($35.05/SF) provides a known income stream, but no rent at expiration data is available, creating pricing uncertainty for the renewal period. GPM Investments, a subsidiary of Nasdaq-listed ARKO Corp., the sixth-largest U.S. convenience operator with roughly 3,500 sites, provides meaningful credit quality, but that guarantor strength does not eliminate the risk that the tenant elects not to exercise its single remaining renewal option. Buyers should underwrite a lease-up or vacancy scenario.
