Georgia NNN FAQ

What cap rates are available for NNN properties in Georgia?

Georgia NNN cap rates range from 4.85% to 6.75% depending on the market and tenant. Atlanta primary market assets (Chick-fil-A, CVS, McDonald's) trade at 4.85–6.25%. Savannah suburban and rural Georgia markets offer 5.0–6.75%. Dollar stores and auto parts throughout the state consistently trade at 5.5–6.75%.

Why is Chick-fil-A such a sought-after NNN property in Georgia?

Chick-fil-A is headquartered in College Park, Georgia, giving it exceptionally strong brand affinity in the Atlanta market. From an investment standpoint, Chick-fil-A NNN properties offer corporate guarantee (not franchisee), 15–20 year primary terms, absolute NNN structure, and extremely limited investment sale supply. Investor demand far exceeds available inventory — these assets rarely sit on the market.

Is Georgia a good state for 1031 exchange replacement properties?

Yes. Georgia is one of the top 1031 exchange destinations in the Southeast. Competitive cap rates, strong tenant fundamentals, and the Atlanta metro's Fortune 500 employment base make Georgia NNN attractive for investors exchanging from the Northeast or Mid-Atlantic. We maintain active Georgia inventory for buyers on tight identification timelines.

What is driving NNN investment growth in Savannah?

The Port of Savannah — the largest and fastest-growing port on the US East Coast — is driving massive logistics and industrial growth in the Savannah region. This has triggered a residential boom as logistics workers and professionals relocate to the area, fueling demand for every NNN category: QSR, dollar stores, convenience stores, and pharmacies.
