March 4, 2026 – Secure Net Lease, a nationally recognized brokerage firm specializing in the acquisition and disposition of investment real estate, has successfully facilitated the sale of the second phase of Liberty Village, a newly constructed multi-tenant retail property located in the Atlanta metropolitan area. The property, occupied by Piedmont Urgent Care and Gloss and Glow Nail Salon, was acquired by a private investor from Florida, highlighting continued investor demand for quality retail investments in high-growth Southeast markets.

“Liberty Village Phase II marked the sale of the second portion of a shopping center developed by a client of ours. The first phase had already been sold in May, and our team worked to identify a buyer who could present a competitive offer for the remaining phase,” said Todd Lewis of Secure Net Lease. “As with many transactions, there were some challenges along the way coordinating between the buyer, the buyer’s broker, and title, but we stayed focused on getting everything across the finish line. Overall, it was a great outcome and another successful transaction for our client.”

This transaction further demonstrates Secure Net Lease’s ability to connect motivated investors with quality retail investments in growing markets. Despite several challenges throughout the process, the firm was able to successfully bring the transaction to a close for all parties involved.

Secure Net Lease has successfully completed the sale-leaseback of two Hawaiian Bros properties located in Phoenix, Arizona and Midland, Texas. The portfolio was acquired by a California-based buyer in an all-cash transaction, marking a streamlined dual-asset closing for a single buyer.

Russell Smith, who represented the tenant in the sale-leaseback, shared, “I represented the franchisee on these sale-leasebacks to a REIT that was looking for quick, clean transactions with strong operators. Hawaiian Bros has been performing well, and both of these locations fit exactly what the buyer was targeting. Because everyone involved was aligned and motivated, the process moved quickly and efficiently. These were straightforward deals, and we were able to get both properties across the finish line without any complications.”

The Phoenix, Arizona location consists of a newly constructed ±2,750-square-foot freestanding building positioned at a prime hard-corner intersection at 99th Avenue and McDowell Road. The site benefits from strong visibility and direct access to Loop 101 and Interstate 10, two of the most heavily traveled corridors in the metro area. The property sits directly across from Gateway Pavilions Power Center, a dominant regional retail hub anchored by Costco and surrounded by national tenants including Chick-fil-A, McDonald’s, and Raising Cane’s. The surrounding area continues to experience rapid residential and industrial growth, with major employers such as Amazon, UPS, and FedEx located nearby.

The Midland, Texas location features a ±3,924-square-foot building situated along W. Loop 250, one of the city’s primary commercial corridors. The site benefits from high traffic counts and is positioned across from Midland Park Mall, which is anchored by national retailers including Dillard’s and JCPenney. Midland College and Midland International Air & Space Port are located nearby, contributing to consistent consumer traffic and economic stability. The broader Midland market remains supported by energy, healthcare, and education sectors, reinforcing long-term fundamentals for retail operators.

The buyer was seeking quality quick-service restaurant assets with strong operators in growing Sunbelt markets, making this two-property portfolio a strategic fit.

Secure Net Lease has successfully completed the sale of a freestanding 7-Eleven located in the Fort Worth / Haslet, Texas market. The property was acquired by a Japan-based 1031 exchange investor seeking bonus depreciation opportunities and long-term stability in high-quality convenience retail assets. The transaction highlights continued international demand for newly constructed net lease properties in top-performing Texas growth corridors.

Matthew Scow, who represented the seller, commented, “This was a very smooth transaction from start to finish with this bonus depreciation buyer. We were able to get the deal done at a really aggressive cap rate for the Haslet and Fort Worth market, which was a great result.”

The 7-Eleven is strategically located on the northeast corner of Sendera Ranch Boulevard and Rancho Canyon Way, just east of U.S. Highway 287, one of the primary transportation corridors serving northwest Tarrant County. Highway 287 connects Fort Worth to northern regions and supports strong local and commuter traffic. The site benefits from exceptional visibility and accessibility within a rapidly growing corridor that has experienced significant residential and commercial expansion in recent years. Additionally, a planned 123,000-square-foot Kroger Marketplace development is positioned directly behind the property, which will further enhance traffic flow and retail synergy in the immediate trade area.

The asset also benefits from its proximity to major regional infrastructure and demand drivers. It is located approximately 15 minutes north of downtown Fort Worth and 16 miles from Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, providing convenient access to one of the nation’s busiest air travel hubs. The property is adjacent to the BNSF Alliance Intermodal Facility, a 500-acre logistics hub featuring rail, road, and air connectivity that continues to expand operations.

Secure Net Lease, a nationally recognized brokerage firm specializing in the acquisition and disposition of investment real estate, has successfully closed the sale of a freestanding Murphy USA property located in Alamo, Texas. The asset was acquired by a Texas-based all-cash buyer seeking stable NNN investments, highlighting continued investor demand for high-performing convenience retail in the Rio Grande Valley.

Harrison Cooper shared, “This was actually my first deal with Secure Net Lease, so I was glad it went as smoothly as it did. We represented the developer on this Murphy USA in Alamo, and overall the transaction came together really well. We were able to generate strong interest and ultimately close at a very competitive cap rate for the market.”

The Murphy USA is strategically positioned at the signalized hard corner of FM 495 and Alamo Road, just north of Interstate 2/U.S. 83 in the heart of the McAllen–Edinburg–Mission MSA. The site benefits from strong daily traffic counts exceeding 80,000 vehicles at the nearby interstate, providing exceptional visibility and accessibility. The property is located within a dominant retail corridor anchored by Walmart and H-E-B, with additional nearby national retailers and service providers driving consistent consumer traffic.

The Rio Grande Valley continues to experience steady economic and population growth, supported by retail, healthcare, education, and international trade, reinforcing long-term viability for well-located retail assets.

“Everything moved efficiently on both the buyer and seller side, which always makes a difference. We’ve worked with the buyer’s broker on multiple transactions before, so there was already a level of trust and familiarity there that helped keep the process on track. I believe we only had the property on the market for about 40 days, so it turned around relatively quickly. It was a solid deal all around” Harrison concluded.

Murphy USA (NYSE: MUSA) is one of the largest independent gasoline and convenience retailers in the United States, operating more than 1,750 locations across 27 states. Known for its strategic positioning adjacent to Walmart Supercenters and high-volume retail corridors, Murphy USA maintains a strong operating model focused on value-driven fuel and merchandise sales.

The property was acquired by a private investor based in the Houston area completing a 1031 exchange. The transaction reflects continued investor demand for net lease assets with national tenants in expanding secondary markets across Texas.

Edward Benton, who represented the seller, commented, “The El Campo deal was a little tougher than I would’ve liked, but we were able to get it across the finish line. We sold the property to a local 1031 exchange buyer out of the Houston area, and this was actually their first single-tenant investment. I walked them through the process and shared some insight from my experience with these types of assets, which helped them get comfortable moving forward. In the end, they closed all cash, and it turned into a really solid outcome for both the buyer and the seller.”

They know what they’re looking for and they move quickly.”

The Starbucks is located at 609 S. Home Street in Corrigan, TX, along U.S. Highway 59, a key route connecting Houston to Lufkin and East Texas.

Secure Net Lease, a nationally recognized brokerage firm, has successfully closed the sale of Hillsboro Commons, a ±15,750-square-foot multi-tenant retail center located in Hillsboro, Texas. The center was acquired by a private capital investor from the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. The deal marked another value-driven transaction facilitated by Secure Net Lease in a high-visibility, secondary Texas market.

Sam House, who represented the seller, shared, “Hillsboro Commons had actually been on the market for a little over a year with another broker, but once we picked up the listing, we were able to re-position it, get the right eyes on it, and ultimately get it sold. Overall, it ended up being a pretty smooth transaction, and we were able to save the seller some major headaches by handling it the right way.”

Hillsboro Commons is strategically positioned near the intersection of Interstate 35 and U.S. Highway 77, just south of the Hillsboro Outlet Center and across from Walmart Supercenter. The location benefits from exceptional visibility and a consistent stream of consumer traffic drawn from both local residents and travelers along I-35. Secure Net Lease implemented a marketing approach that emphasized the property’s core strengths and lease-up potential. A key component of the closing strategy was managing a master lease structure in a way that avoided buyer credit negotiations, as the vacant space was backfilled prior to closing, simplifying the process and preserving seller value.

“The proximity to Walmart was also a major positive, especially in a secondary market like Hillsboro, because it gives the center strong daily traffic and long-term retail stability. That was a big driver for buyer interest, and in the end we were able to close at a very competitive cap rate for the area. We were really happy with how it all came together” Sam concluded.

The shopping center features a healthy mix of internet-resistant tenants and service-based operators that benefit from daily traffic generators in the immediate area. Hillsboro, located midway between Dallas and Waco, continues to benefit from population and infrastructure growth as development spreads along the I-35 corridor. This sale reinforces the growing investor appetite for stabilized multi-tenant assets in high-visibility, secondary market locations with strong national co-tenancy.

Edward Benton, who represented the seller, shared, “This one was definitely a more challenging deal, but staying patient and trusting the process ultimately got us across the finish line.

In the end, we were able to get it closed at a very aggressive cap rate for the Navasota market, which made the extra effort well worth it.”
