Dollar General in Folkston, GA Sold

Reston, VA - Calkain Companies', a national real estate investment brokerage firm, recently completed the sale of a Dollar General store located in Folkston, GA. The 9,014 SF investment property is leased to Dollar General on a long-term, double net (NN) basis. The purchaser was a private investor seeking a passive, incoming-producing asset leased to a national tenant.
Calkain's Rich Murphy brokered the transaction on the buy side and worked with Bill Weitzenkorn from Tri-Oak Commercial who represented the seller. Calkain utilized its extensive database to match its buyer up with properties that would fit their investment strategy. “Knowing the buyer's criteria, it was a matter of finding an attractive property at the right price point,” says Murphy. “This property was actually a relocation of an existing successful Dollar General. That along with a solid location and an excellent CAP rate made this a great transaction for all involved,” adds Murphy. The asset traded at an 8.9% CAP rate, illustrating that good deals exist out there for those willing to look hard enough. This Dollar General deal represents the type of stable asset that investors are focused on purchasing in the current environment.
The transaction closed within the last thirty days and is recorded in the public record.

NNN Net Leased IHOP Sold Dallas, TX

NNN Lease Market News

Tampa, FL — Calkain Companies, a national real estate investment brokerage firm, recently procured the $1,910,000 sale of a NNN Net Leased IHOP investment property in the Dallas, TX suburb of Lewisville.  The property, located at 2345 South Stemmons Freeway, is occupied by ACG Texas, the IHOP franchisee for the state of Texas with over 70 restaurant locations in service.  The NNN Net Lease  restaurant is situated across the street from Vista Ridge Mall and near the high traffic intersection of Interstate 35E and E. Round Grove Road.
Patrick Nutt, Associate Vice President of Calkain Realty Advisors, the private market division of Calkain Companies, represented the private buyer in this cash transaction.  Nutt commented, “The buyer was familiar with the tenant, already owning other NNN net leased  sites within his portfolio, and was looking to expand that presence.”  Nutt continued, “Rather than take the approach of limiting exposure to particular tenants, the purchaser prefers to have a substantial landlord relationship with each tenant occupying NNN net leased real estate within his portfolio.”
This sale marks the fourth closing in just over a month for Nutt, continuing the steady market velocity from the end of 2010.  Nutt remarked, “While there was a slight ‘hangover’ effect from a busy December, the buyers are eager to wrap up the first quarter with strong numbers.  If you have a property occupied by a quality tenant or located on strong real estate, there is considerable demand for those assets.”
