Triple Net Lease Brokers $2.3MM Purchase

of Net Lease Rite Aid

Calkain Companies, a national real estate investment brokerage firm, successfully completed a net lease transaction in which a private client acquired a property leased to and operated as a Rite Aid (NYSE: RAD) pharmacy. The $2.3MM property was located in Gastonia, NC and the purchaser was a private, mid-Atlantic real estate investor. The 10,900 sf pharmacy building is leased to Rite Aid under a long-term, triple net lease, which provides passive income for the investor.

Calkain’s Andrew Fallon, Associate, facilitated the transaction, providing exclusive representation to the Buyer. Pharmacies have long been a desired segment of the net lease market, but Rite Aid properties have been scrutinized given the company’s operating performance.  Fallon worked closely with the buyer and indicated that, “the investor did extensive due diligence on this Rite Aid location, ensuring that the store was busy, had excellent sales, and was on a strong corner.” The property is located at a signalized corner across the street from a Walgreens, one of Rite Aid’s main competitors. Fallon continues, “Within the net lease market, Rite Aid’s are offering an inflated return to investors based on the perceived credit risk associated with the tenant.” Even with the perceived risk, the purchaser was able to secure competitive financing for the acquisition.

Rite Aid operates approximately 4,700 pharmacies in 31 states and the District ofColumbia. Rite Aid is the largest drug store chain on the East Coast and the third largest drugstore chain in the county.
