Investment Highlights

  • The GPM Investments/ARKO Corp. guaranty provides institutional-grade credit support from a publicly traded, SEC-reporting operator with approximately 3,500 locations nationally.
  • A 1-mile average household income of $80,631 is above the 3-mile average, suggesting a relatively stronger immediate trade area consumer base.
  • Zero FEMA flood risk under Zone X designation eliminates a common physical asset liability for this property class.

Key Risks

  • Five competing gas stations within half a mile create severe fuel market saturation against a daily traffic count of only 2,984 vehicles.
  • Remaining lease term of 2.8 years with no disclosed rent escalation at expiration creates near-term rollover risk in a declining-population county.
  • Clinton County lost population from 2020 to 2024 and carries a thin employment base of 10,831 workers, undermining long-term tenant demand fundamentals.

Executive Summary

This Village Pantry/Fas Mart (GPM Investments) net lease asset in Frankfort, Indiana offers a short-duration income stream on a 3,858 SF convenience store built in 1996 with 2.8 years of remaining term. The site scores 53/100 on location grade, reflecting average fundamentals in a nonmetro, modestly declining market. Risk-adjusted return expectations should account for meaningful rollover exposure within a near-term investment horizon.

Demographics

The 1-mile trade area supports 3,251 residents at a density of 1,035 per square mile with average household income of $80,631, which is adequate but not strong for a fuel and convenience format. The 3-mile ring broadens to 14,609 residents with average household income falling to $67,682, a median home value of $117,546, and 11.6% poverty — demographic quality is modest at best. Population figures are flat between the 3-mile and 5-mile rings, signaling limited suburban growth extending outward.

Market Context

Clinton County is classified as nonmetro urban with a 2020-to-2024 population decline of 277 residents, or negative 0.8%. The local employment base of 10,831 workers across 620 establishments is thin, and the county's 49 food service operators suggest a limited but stable convenience demand environment. There is no EV charging infrastructure within five miles, which currently preserves fuel demand but flags longer-term format vulnerability.

Location Quality

Daily traffic of 2,984 vehicles is materially below the threshold considered strong for a gas station convenience format, typically 10,000 or more. Five competing gas stations exist within half a mile, creating a heavily saturated fuel corridor that compresses pricing power and customer capture rates. The Walk Score of 50 and proximity to a major road provide partial mitigation, but overall site accessibility and visibility metrics are unremarkable.

Risk Factors

Flood exposure is minimal under FEMA Zone X designation. No specific crime data was available for independent analysis. Physical asset age of approximately 29 years introduces deferred capital expenditure considerations at re-leasing or disposition.

Investment Positioning

With only 2.8 years of term remaining and a renewal notice deadline of September 2028, a buyer acquires near-term rollover risk rather than durable income. Annual base rent of $75,512 at $19.57 per square foot is modest, and no rent escalation at expiration is disclosed, limiting organic income growth. The lease guaranty from 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 guaranty value diminishes as term burns down. A buyer must underwrite re-leasing probability or exit prior to 2029 at a compressed cap rate.
