Just food for thought.

Talk with your tenant and make sure there is no food source drawing them in.

There are a few Real Estate Groups and meetups groups that you can learn from, The Rich Club is one and a few others that charge fees or you can go to meetup.com and search the different networking events in Houston, Jet Lending host the biggest one once a month, great place to network, meet lenders, wholesalers, real estate investors seeking partners and there is free food and beer.

@Russell Brazil Really great food for thought Russell.

So it's a little different than the boom/busy potential of a place like Greenbrier when fracking came and has largely left.Anyway, no giant conclusions, just food for thought.

Gas is almost a loss leader and the owners make money off of lotto tickets and inside food and drink sales.If it's an old gas station on an over sized lot in a great location then Quick Trip, Racetrac, Wawa, Speedway,etc. might have interest.

Just food for thought from a guy who has done a lot of deals.

Also, I like to try and put some emergency money aside in a hard to get to place, so that if things go wrong, you have money for yourself - not for your projects, but for yourself if something bad happened or things take longer than expected you're not sudddenly scrounging to come up with food money.

Fast food would not want that side location that is hard to find.Retailers want VISIBILITY.Dollar stores also tend to be sheet metal side and back with brick or concrete block front.

Just food for thought for the conversation you should have with your attorney - except what I said about over employment. ;-) they might not find that funny.
