This potential merger could significantly reshape the U.S. convenience store landscape, continuing the industry’s trend of growth through acquisitions.

What made you interested in investing in this type of deal?

I know I put the work in already to get to this point, and though I've had the confidence or the manifestation knowing all along I could do it without a doubt, it still shocks me at times that I was able to do it by myself with zero guidance and just intuition and a cant fail attitude!

Has anyone else dealt with this problem?

Is anyone investing in or near this area that can give me any insight to the market? 

For anyone who has experience with this, 1) is this a good route to take?

Hope that helps!

Shopping insurance helped a bunch, I was able to cut out ~$500 on that alone. 

If this is financing for a stabilized property rate carries more importance but rate combined with origination fees, pre-payment penalty and term in which you intend on keeping the loan in place are all considerations which together should help in deciding the best financing option.
