Net Lease CAP Rates Cooling-Off

Net Lease Press Releases 


Cap rates on Walgreens and CVS properties remained flat with the quarter prior at 6.45 percent and 6.7 percent respectively, but cap rates on restaurants fell 25 basis points to 7.25 percent. Cap rates on McDonald’s restaurants in particular fell 20 basis points to 4.8 percent, and cap rates on Dollar General stores fell 15 basis points, to 8.1 percent. 


However, few of those properties are trading in the core markets. Finding a McDonald’s or a Walgreens for sale in a primary market has “gotten tougher because there is not a lot of new things coming out of the ground and partly that’s what pushed down cap rates, as well as [the fact that] interest rates have gotten so low,” says Jonathan W. Hipp, president and CEO ofCalkain Cos., a Reston, Va.-based brokerage and consulting firm specializing in the net lease sector.

Triple Net Lease (NNN) Transactions Sold in Florida


Net Lease Press Releases


The properties acquired were leased on a long-term, triple net basis

Scott Black, Associate and Patrick Nutt, Managing Director of Calkain Companies’, a national real estate investment brokerage firm, successfully completed  triple net lease (NNN) transactions in which private clients acquired passive real estate investment properties. The two properties were located in Florida . The properties acquired were leased on a long-term, triple net basis to the national tenant Regions Bank.


A summary of the each triple net lease transaction is below:

Regions Bank - Lakeland, FL: Calkain secured the exclusive listing from the owner, a family investment fund, and secured a fully executed contract to purchase within two weeks. The ultimate buyer, a private investor, purchased the 4,620 square foot property leased by Regions Bank (NYSE: RF). Even with only three (3) years remaining of the lease, the established tenancy, coupled with the shopping center outparcel location, made this an attractive investment.


Confidential - Florida Transaction: Calkain exclusively listed a confidential property that was ultimately 
purchased as part of a 1031 tax deferred exchange. The private investor, based out of New York, acquired a building leased and occupied by a national, investment-grade tenant. Further details are unavailable due to confidentiality agreements between parties.
Calkain is a full service real estate brokerage firm with a national scope focusing on single and multi‐ tenant retail, industrial, hotel and office net‐leased transactions.
