This FasMart convenience store and gas station at 2729 N John B Dennis Hwy in Kingsport, Tennessee is a single-tenant net lease asset graded Strong (63/100) with 1.4 years of remaining term. The property sits on a 0.4-acre pad built in 2006, occupied by a GPM Investments-guaranteed tenant under a lease expiring November 30, 2027. Near-term rollover risk dominates the investment thesis.
The immediate 1-mile trade area returns zero populated residents in the data, suggesting an industrial or transitional land use pattern immediately surrounding the site. The 3-mile ring holds 29,342 residents with average household income of $74,275 and a 23.9% poverty rate, indicating a moderate-income consumer base with meaningful economic stress. The 5-mile population of 60,153 at $76,347 average household income provides adequate fuel and convenience demand at the corridor level.
Sullivan County is a stable mid-scale metro market with 162,703 residents growing 2.8% since 2020 and an unemployment rate of 3.4%, consistent with national averages. The county supports 3,343 establishments and 58,951 employees, reflecting a diversified but not high-growth economic base. Kingsport is a secondary Appalachian city without significant population acceleration, limiting organic rent growth expectations.
The site fronts a major road at 0.00 miles to the nearest arterial and benefits from 15,602 daytime workers within 3 miles, supporting fuel and convenience traffic. However, Walk Score of 35 and Transit Score of 0 confirm full car dependency, and the presence of 3 competing gas stations within 1 mile creates meaningful pump-price sensitivity. With only 7 nearby restaurants and 7 retail destinations within 1 mile, the trade area lacks the density and co-tenancy to drive premium convenience volumes.
The FEMA flood designation is Zone X, indicating minimal flood hazard and no environmental premium on insurance. State-level crime data is unavailable, limiting a complete risk underwrite. EV charging penetration is low at 2 stations within 5 miles, reducing near-term demand displacement risk but not eliminating long-run fuel volume concerns.
With only 1.4 years remaining and a notice deadline of March 1, 2027, a buyer faces immediate lease rollover exposure. Current rent of $53,649 annually ($18.29 per square foot) is modest, and no rent-at-expiration figure is available to assess embedded growth. The single renewal option provides limited contractual runway. GPM Investments, as a subsidiary of Nasdaq-listed ARKO Corp., the sixth-largest U.S. convenience operator with roughly 3,500 sites, provides institutional-grade credit support, but that credit quality does not eliminate the operational decision ARKO will make on renewal near-term.
