Frequently Asked Questions
Can I sell my convenience store with the coolers, shelving, and fixtures?
Yes. We buy convenience store properties with all walk-in coolers, display cases, shelving, POS systems, and other fixtures in place. You can leave remaining inventory as well.
What about the tobacco license and beer/wine permit?
Tobacco and alcohol licenses typically stay with the operator, not the property. We do not require you to transfer these licenses as a condition of selling the real estate. You can surrender or transfer them separately.
Can I sell a convenience store that also has gas pumps?
Absolutely. We buy combined gas station and convenience store properties, including properties with underground fuel storage tanks. Environmental concerns are handled on our end.
What if my convenience store is not profitable?
We value the real estate first and foremost. Whether your store is profitable, breaking even, or losing money, we make a cash offer based on the property, location, and building condition.
Do I need to clear out inventory before selling?
No. You can remove inventory you wish to sell or donate, or leave it in place. We handle property clean-out after closing at no cost to you.
How fast can I close on my convenience store in Centralia?
Most convenience store property sales close in 14-21 days after you accept our offer. If you need time to wind down vendor relationships, we can accommodate a longer timeline.
What Our Sellers Say
“My mom passed and I inherited her place in Antioch. It needed a ton of work and I live out of state so I couldn't deal with contractors or showings. They came out, looked at it, and had a number for me the next day. We closed in 9 days. The whole thing was so much easier than I expected.”
Inherited Property
“Honestly I was skeptical at first because I'd heard horror stories about cash buyers lowballing people. But they explained exactly how they came up with the number and it was fair. We were behind on payments and they got everything done in a week. No last-minute changes, no surprises at closing.”
Avoided Foreclosure
“My husband got transferred to Dallas and we had about three weeks to figure out the house. A friend told us about EasyOffer. They gave us a cash offer that same afternoon and worked around our move date. We closed 11 days later without having to do a single showing or open house.”
