Sell a Gas Station or C-Store

Branded and unbranded fuel, convenience stores, and truck stops — with or without the real estate. Submit once and we underwrite in-house against a nationwide network of active, capitalized buyers, then give you a real answer within 72 hours.

What Clears the Filter

What we buy in gas stations & c-stores

We would rather tell you plainly what we look at than have you guess. If your property sits outside this, submit it anyway — we will tell you why it does not fit rather than ignore you.

Format
Fuel with c-store, c-store only, truck stops, and stations with QSR or car wash.
Branding
Branded supply agreements or unbranded. Jobber contracts reviewed as part of underwriting.
Real estate
Fee simple preferred; leasehold and business-only sales considered.
Volume
Any. Low-volume sites in good locations are still evaluated.
Tanks
Any age. UST compliance status is underwritten openly rather than treated as a dealbreaker.
Price range
$250K to $20M+. Single sites and portfolios.

Why Off-Market

Why fuel retail sells off-market

Fuel retail is an owner-operator business, and a public listing tells your staff, your fuel supplier, and every competing operator in the county at once. Staff turnover in a business that runs on a handful of people is genuinely damaging, and competitors who know you are exiting will price against you while you wait to close.

The buyer pool for these assets is also narrow and specialised. A public listing produces volume rather than quality — enquiries from people who have never held a fuel supply agreement or dealt with an underground storage tank. Every buyer in our network is vetted for funds or a prior transaction record.

Off-market keeps it discreet. Nothing is listed, and no buyer sees the site's identity without your authorisation.

What To Send

What helps us move faster

None of this is required to start. Send what you have; we will tell you what is missing.

  • Whether you are selling the real estate, the business, or both
  • Monthly fuel volume, and inside sales separately from fuel margin
  • Your fuel supply or jobber agreement, and how long is left on it
  • Tank age and material, and the most recent compliance testing
  • Any additional profit centres — car wash, QSR, lottery, check cashing
  • Whether there has been any known release or remediation on the site

Common Questions

Gas Stations & C-Stores — questions we get

Do I have to sell the real estate and the business together?

No. Fee simple with the business is the cleanest and usually the most valuable, but we evaluate business-only sales and leasehold situations too. Tell us which you are selling — it changes materially which buyers are a fit.

What if my underground storage tanks are old?

Tank age is a normal underwriting input, not a disqualifier. Buyers in this space deal with UST compliance as routine. Disclose age, material, and the most recent testing upfront — a compliance surprise in diligence is what breaks these deals.

Will you look at a station with a prior environmental release?

Yes. Prior releases and open remediation cases are common in fuel retail and specialised buyers handle them routinely. Whether there is a state trust fund covering it matters a great deal, so tell us early.

Does a branded supply agreement help or hurt the sale?

It depends on the terms and how long is left. A favourable agreement can add value; a long, restrictive one at poor margins can limit which buyers fit. Either way it is a known quantity we underwrite, so send the agreement.

Are low-volume stations worth submitting?

Yes. Volume is one input among several — location, inside sales margin, additional profit centres, and the value of the real estate itself all matter. Some of the strongest deals are underperforming sites in locations that justify a rebuild.

What does it cost to submit?

Nothing. No cost to submit, no cost for the evaluation, no cost to receive an offer. A fee is earned only on a closing.

Your property. Our platform.
