Turnkey Operating Leases
Parkland stores leased with equipment, coolers, and POS in place — the fastest route from signature to operating income.

Broward County • Broward
Convenience stores for lease in Parkland, Florida are offered as turnkey operating leases, shell retail leases, and c-store-with-fuel dealer leases. Rent is underwritten against inside-sales gross profit rather than square footage, and permits, equipment ownership, and any fuel supply agreement are negotiated alongside the lease. Led by Bobby Berrido, CCIM, CMAA. All transactions are brokered through Fausto Commercial.

(305) 518-1545Leasing a Parkland convenience store puts an operator into inside-sales income without buying the real estate. The three structures we broker are a turnkey operating lease including equipment and coolers, a shell lease where the tenant builds out, and a c-store-plus-fuel dealer lease with a supply agreement attached.
Parkland lease demand tracks affluent residential, and the leasable store inventory concentrates on University Dr and Holmberg Rd with Sawgrass Expy (adjacent) access.
Rent coverage is the whole underwriting. If rent plus labor, utilities, and card fees consumes the store's gross profit, the lease fails no matter how attractive the location looks.

What We Broker
Parkland stores leased with equipment, coolers, and POS in place — the fastest route from signature to operating income.
Branded and unbranded fuel facilities leased with the store, where supply terms set your cents-per-gallon for the entire term.
Retail shells on University Dr suited to a new c-store build-out, including permitting and image-program considerations.
Own a Parkland store property? We screen tenant experience, capital, and supply relationships before delivering a signed lease.
Compare leasing against acquiring the same Parkland inventory, including how each path treats UST liability and equity build.
Tobacco, beer and wine, lottery, and food-service permitting sequenced so the store opens with every revenue line live.
Parkland demand is resident-driven and therefore steady week to week, with peaks in the morning and evening commute on University Dr and Holmberg Rd. Steady demand supports financing, but it also means growth comes from capture rate and store execution rather than from new traffic.
In resident markets, the competitive question is what could be built nearby. We check zoning, available pads, and permitted competing fuel or wash uses inside the trade area before pricing, because a new build a half mile away resets throughput in a 34,670-resident market faster than any pricing strategy can recover.
Tenants in Parkland should price a lease from coverage, not from rate. Build the store's expected inside-sales gross profit first, then test rent, CAM, insurance, and taxes against it. On University Dr and Holmberg Rd, asking rents vary widely for space with nearly identical traffic counts.
Negotiate the items that decide profitability later: exclusive use for beer, wine, and tobacco within the center, signage rights visible from Sawgrass Expy (adjacent), permitted hours, a landlord work letter for cooler electrical capacity, and assignment rights so the leasehold can be sold as a business.
Parkland sits in Broward County with roughly 34,670 residents and functions as a small-market Broward trade area. Retail transactions cluster on University Dr and Holmberg Rd, and regional access runs through Sawgrass Expy (adjacent). That geography, more than countywide averages, determines what a site here earns.
Because Parkland inventory rarely reaches public marketplaces, most ownership changes here happen operator-to-operator. We surface those under NDA to buyers already qualified on proof of funds and financing, which keeps employees, suppliers, and vendors out of the process until closing.
Every Parkland engagement stays confidential — blind teaser first, NDA-gated package second, and no public listing unless the owner asks for one. All transactions are brokered through Fausto Commercial.
Rent Economics
Rent on a Parkland c-store lease is set from inside-sales gross profit, not from a per-square-foot market rate. Landlords and operators both test whether the store's departmental margin covers rent with room left for payroll, utilities, insurance, and credit-card processing.
Ask who owns the coolers, the POS, the walk-in, and the signage. Equipment ownership decides who funds a compressor failure at 2 a.m., and it is the most common gap in a University Dr store lease.
Also negotiate assignment rights up front. An operator who cannot assign the lease has no exit, which caps the value of everything they build over the term.
