If you want the corporate credit story, the Dollar General credit rating and cap rate profile covers it. This page is about the inventory: what is on the market, what it is asking, how the pricing breaks down by term, state and lease type, and how a buyer, especially a 1031 exchange buyer, should work through it.

What You Are Actually Buying

Every Dollar General store in the United States is company-operated. Dollar General does not franchise, so there is no franchisee operator to underwrite. The lease may still name a subsidiary, such as Dolgencorp, LLC, as the tenant, so confirm the exact tenant entity and any Dollar General Corporation guaranty before relying on the corporate credit. Company operation is a large part of the reason a rural Dollar General trades near a corporate cap rate despite sitting in a market with almost no alternative tenant demand.

The traditional prototype is roughly 9,100 square feet on one to one and a half acres, and the company’s primary new store format is larger, averaging about 8,500 square feet of selling space, with DG Market stores larger still. Initial terms are usually fifteen years. The structure buyers most often misread is rent escalation: many Dollar General leases are flat through the entire primary term with increases appearing only in option periods, so a fifteen-year lease can mean fifteen years of unchanged income.

Across the current inventory, roughly 30% of listings with a reported build year were delivered in the last four years, and about 16% are marketed as NN, NN+ or simply Net, which usually means the landlord retains roof and structure and sometimes parking and HVAC. Read the lease rather than the brochure headline. If the rating framework behind investment grade tenancy is unfamiliar, the investment grade guide explains it.

Dollar General Cap Rate, Price and Term Distribution

These tables are generated from the live inventory and refresh every few hours. Use them to place any individual listing in context rather than judging an asking cap rate in isolation.

How to read the pricing

The spread inside the Dollar General inventory runs from 4.27% to 9.77%, against a median of 7.00%. Three variables help explain much of that spread, although these tables describe asking prices and do not isolate any single effect. First, remaining term, shown in the term table above. Second, geography, shown in the state table below. Third, lease structure and real estate quality: longer terms, stronger guarantors, absolute NNN structures and strong access generally ask lower cap rates, while leases with landlord responsibilities (NN) and secondary access generally ask higher ones; ground leases can price on either side, depending on rent and land value. When a listing sits far outside the band its term and state would predict, there is usually a reason in the lease, and it is worth finding before you write the offer rather than after.

Where Dollar General NNN Properties Are For Sale

Current inventory spans 43 states. Differences between states in the table below can reflect local buyer demand, growth, taxes and the mix of lease terms in each state’s listings as much as anything about the tenant, and small state samples can shift quickly.

Dollar General as a 1031 Exchange Replacement Property

The median asking price in the current Dollar General inventory is $1.39M, and about 42% of listings fall in the middle of the market between 1.5 and 3.5 million dollars. Whether that fits an exchange depends on the equity coming out of the relinquished property and on the debt you need to replace.

• Identify from the live list, not a stale one. Listings move. Identify two or three specific properties under the three-property rule and keep a backup that is realistically still available.
• Debt replacement is the trap. If the relinquished property carried a mortgage, you must replace that debt or add cash to fully defer gain. Where lender pricing sits above the asking cap rate, financed acquisitions run negative leverage. Run your own debt numbers before you identify.
• Term should match your hold. If you plan to hold through the next exchange or pass the asset to heirs, prioritize term and options over 25 basis points of cap rate.
• Certainty of closing matters more than price. A clean estoppel, a current lease and no pending relocation are worth paying for on a 45-day clock.

Dollar General NNN Due Diligence Checklist

These are the items that change the value of a Dollar General listing and are rarely resolved by the offering memorandum.

• Rent escalation schedule. Confirm whether increases occur during the primary term or only in options. Flat primary-term rent is common and materially changes yield on cost over a hold.
• Roof and structure. A meaningful share of older Dollar General leases are NN, leaving the landlord responsible for roof and structure. Obtain a roof inspection and warranty documentation.
• Exit liquidity. Many locations sit in small or rural markets where the resale buyer pool is thinner and the second-generation tenant pool is very thin. Underwrite the exit, not just the coupon.
• Store rationalization. Dollar General has publicly closed and relocated underperforming units. Check store age, local unit density and whether a newer store has opened nearby.

How Investment Grade Works With Dollar General Buyers

Investment Grade Income Property, LP is a licensed commercial real estate brokerage providing national advisory on acquisitions and dispositions of net lease property, with Broker of Record co-listing partnerships in all 50 states. On a Dollar General acquisition we screen the live inventory against your criteria, pull the lease abstract behind any listing you want to pursue, benchmark the asking cap rate against the distribution above, and negotiate on your side of the table through closing. On most transactions there is no separate fee to the buyer because compensation is paid from the transaction by the listing side. Where that is not the case we disclose it in writing before you engage.

Owners of existing Dollar General properties can use this page as a valuation benchmark. If you are weighing a sale, an off-market disposition to a qualified 1031 buyer often closes faster and with less retrading than a broad marketing process.
