Calabasas Retail for Sale - Calabasas/Westlake Vill

Pegasus Investments Real Estate Advisory, as exclusive representatives for the Seller, is pleased to offer the fee simple interest in a newly renovated Starbucks located in Calabasas, California (the “Property”). This 2,331-square-foot building, formerly a Taco Bell, has been completely modernized and re-tenanted by Starbucks under a brand-new 15-year corporate net lease. Situated on approximately half an acre with a highly coveted drive-thru, this offering represents an exceptional investment opportunity in one of Southern California’s most affluent and supply-constrained submarkets. The lease features 10% rent increases every five years, including during each of the four five-year renewal options, providing both long-term income durability and built-in growth. Notably, there are no termination rights. Starbucks elected to add this second store to the retail corridor, their other location being an inline store in the adjacent Albertsons-anchored shopping center, opening this freestanding location to secure drive-thru capabilities and enhance operational efficiency, demonstrating their success and deep confidence in this market and the long-term value of the rare drive-thru entitlement. Strategically positioned just off the Las Virgenes Road exit of the 101 Freeway, also known as Malibu Canyon, the Property benefits from outstanding visibility and access to high-volume commuter and local traffic. This corridor serves as the primary connection between Calabasas and Malibu and is heavily trafficked by Pepperdine University students, families accessing A.E. Wright Middle School, and area professionals. The surrounding trade area includes a mix of national retailers and essential service providers such as McDonald’s, Jack in the Box, Jersey Mike’s, Philz Coffee, and a new Erewhon Market. The Property also enjoys proximity to key daytime drivers including the Las Virgenes Unified School District headquarters, the Calabasas Community Center, and major corporate offices for UCLA Health, Yamaha, The Cheesecake Factory, and Harbor Freight. Perhaps most notably, the drive-thru entitlement offers investors a truly irreplaceable asset. Since 1998, the City of Calabasas has enforced a ban on new drive-thru development, making this one of only three drive-thru properties in the entire city. This rare entitlement creates significant long-term competitive insulation and anchors the investment in a hard-to-replicate location. With median home values exceeding $2 million and average household incomes approaching $200,000, Calabasas ranks among the most desirable and demographically compelling communities in California. This offering presents the opportunity to acquire a best-in-class net lease asset backed by one of the world’s most iconic brands, in a market defined by high barriers to entry and enduring real estate fundamentals.

Drive Through Restaurants For Sale

Drive Through Restaurants

A drive-thru restaurant is a type of fast food establishment that provides customers with the ability to order and receive their meal while still in their car. This type of restaurant has been on the rise in recent years with an increase in demand for quick, mobile-friendly food options.

The majority of drive through restaurants are located on or near busy streets, making them easy for drivers to access. This accessibility can be attractive to investors as it will increase potential revenues by attracting more customers without extensive advertising costs.

Why should you buy a restaurant with a drive through as an investor?

There are many reasons to invest in a drive through restaurant. These restaurants can be profitable if they're modeled correctly and managed well. You need to consider several things when investing in a drive-through restaurant, such as location and demographics, before deciding whether or not it's right for you

The first thing that needs consideration is where your potential business should be located. A major factor here is population density - what does the neighborhood look like? Is there plenty of foot traffic on any given day? If so, this would mean more customers for the restaurant! You also want to make sure there are no competing businesses nearby that may lure away your customer base; try looking at some other areas of town with less competition and underserved population.

What are the costs of buying a drive through restaurant?

The costs to consider include the cost of the building, renovations or repairs and upgrades needed in order to do business. There may be additional fees such as franchise fees, permits, licensing. Talk to your broker about additional costs.

The cost for a commercial property itself will vary depending on the size and location; a building might cost more than one near a busy highway interchange with high traffic volume. The price per square foot also varies significantly by location.

How to make your purchase profitable and sustainable in the long run.

Purchasing a profitable drive-through restaurant requires careful research and consideration of what is needed in the area.

You will need to consider the most profitable drive-through locations, deciding if you want a single site or plan on multiple sites.

Consideration should be given to both established restaurants with traffic volumes that meet your needs as well as those which are under-performing but have potential for time and money investment to increase revenues.

Is it worth it for you to buy a drive thru restaurant now?

Right now is a a great time to invest in a drive through restaurant.

As of 2021, Interest rates are low and there is less competition for properties, which means you can get the property for less money than if you buy it later on down the road when prices and interest rates may increase. Additionally, now would be a good time to buy because people need convenient and safe food options during tough economic times.
