Five Upper North Island Service Stations for Sale

Five service stations for sale

July 5, 2017 - A portfolio of five upper North Island service stations is up for sale with the bulk of the properties’ 20-year leases still to run.

The four Caltex and one BP stations are generating a combined annual net rental income of $685,464. Featured in Bayleys’ latest Total Property portfolio, they are being offered for sale on behalf of one vendor through Alan Haydock and Damien Bullick, Bayleys Auckland, by tender closing July 20 unless sold prior.

“All these properties have just over 16 years left on their current leases – offerings with this length of tenure hardly ever come up for sale,” says Haydock. “The leases also have built in rental growth, providing two-yearly fixed rental increases of four percent, with the next increase due in November, as well as reviews to market in November 2023 and on renewal.

“In addition, the triple net lease structure means tenants cover ongoing maintenance and capital expenditure. It’s a perfect bottom drawer, hands-off investment opportunity.”

Bullick says all of the properties are strategically positioned in high exposure locations on busy roads. All of the current leases run until October 31, 2033, with four three-year rights of renewal.

The portfolio comprises:

A Caltex Station at 520 Te Ngae Road, Rotorua: Situated on a high profile 2,536m² corner site, it is the nearest major service station to Rotorua Airport, a drop off point for rental vehicles. The property, which is returning net annual rental income of $140,712, also has the advantage of being integrated with the Te Ngae shopping centre which has a variety of national and local tenants. Developed in the 1990s, the service station comprises a large forecourt and 198 sq m Caltex Fix shop, along with a car wash.
