Loc R. Anyone own a gas station, or know someone who does?
22 July 2011 | 3 replies
Also you could have a gas station in a great location but it is not a hard pin corner.Race Trac comes in or QT and buys a corner which is easier to get out of.Now many of the people coming into your store will go to the easier access location.I have seen this happen to a Shell station that closed down when a RaceTrac went in.The gas you don't make the money on it is the items in the store.You have to be really careful of selling the Lottery and the Liquor and robberies.Have to pay special attention that the camera is up to date to watch for stealing or outside loitering.Many have the solid plexiglass windows that are bulletproof depending on the area.I know some gas station owners who have 8 to 10 locations but I don't specialize in that.The dumbest thing I have seen is putting a huge commercial for sale sign in front of the gas station.You are telling all your customers who go there that things are changing and they speculate as to why you are selling.Customers are creatures of habit and they do not like change and uncertainty.So in many cases when selling commercial property you do not stick a sign upfront if it is an operating business.
