Leased under a long‑term absolute triple‑net (NNN) structure, this freestanding, drive‑thru optimized site provides zero landlord responsibilities, built‑in rent escalations, and truly passive income—all secured by a recognized national QSR brand. In one of the most attractive growth markets in the country, this asset delivers a combination of stability, scalability, and investor appeal ideal for 1031 exchange buyers, institutional and private investors.
Wendy’s is a leading burger chain in the United States and abroad, operating more than 6,800 locations. The brand features signature square patties, fresh‑cut fries, and a commitment to quality at an accessible price point. Wendy’s continues to invest in menu innovation, digital initiatives, and delivery platforms, making it a resilient operator in both metro and suburban environments. Wendy’s proven drive‑thru model and operational efficiency make it well‑suited to growth corridors across the Austin MSA.
This property is subject to an absolute NNN lease, a structure where Wendy’s assumes full responsibility for all expenses—property taxes, insurance, repairs, roof, structure, HVAC, landscaping, parking lot care, and more. The lease also includes scheduled rent escalations—typically every five years—providing compound income growth and protecting returns from inflation. This hands‑off structure is preferred by investors seeking consistency, simplicity, and long‑term upside.
This structure ensures dependable revenue and long-term stability. For investors building a low-risk real estate portfolio in high-growth markets, this asset delivers core-quality performance.
The Austin MSA is among the fastest-growing metro areas in the U.S., home to approximately 2.4 million residents. Over the past decade, the region has experienced population growth exceeding 30%, driven by robust job creation, corporate relocations, and a youthful, tech‑savvy demographic.
Key economic drivers include technology, engineering, healthcare, education, government, and advanced manufacturing. Major employers such as Apple, Tesla, Dell, Oracle, Samsung, IBM, UT Austin, and Ascension Seton anchor the region, attracting a highly educated and high‑income workforce. Favorable tax policies—including no state income tax—and a vibrant cultural scene further amplify migration and investment.
This Wendy’s is located on a primary suburban arterial within a fast-expanding submarket of the Austin MSA. The roadway supports average daily traffic counts of 25,000+ vehicles, delivering strong drive‑thru visibility and accessibility.
Modern drive‑thru design supports dual‑lane service, maximizing order flow and convenience. High signage exposure and near‑corner placement enhance brand presence. The property benefits from nearby national co‑tenants—grocery stores, big‑box retailers, auto services, banks, and other QSR operators—creating strong synergy and trip frequency.
The surrounding area features a growing mix of single-family and multifamily communities, schools, medical campuses, office parks, and lifestyle centers. High daytime population density supports consistent sale volume throughout the week and on weekends.
Within a 3–5‑mile radius, the following applies:
Select suburban nodes—such as Round Rock, Pflugerville, Cedar Park, Kyle, Georgetown, and Buda—have experienced significant housing and infrastructure investment. Elevated rooftops, employment parks, and retail footprints have displaced greenfield sites, making freestanding QSR locations increasingly valued.
With built-in escalations every five years—typically 6% to 10%—this investment offers a contractually secure income stream that grows over time. This built-in growth outpaces general inflation and preserves cash flow.
The absolute NNN lease eliminates landlord maintenance, management, and capital obligations. From roof replacements to parking lot resurfacing, all costs are passed to the tenant, ensuring stable net operating income and low ownership risk.
This Wendy’s absolute NNN investment in the Austin MSA offers a compelling package: reliable, passive income; a national QSR tenant; inflation-hedged lease structure; and prime drive-thru location in a hyper-growth Texas market. The absolute NNN lease, rent escalations, and outstanding trade-area demographics position this asset as a core addition for portfolios requiring simplicity, stability, and long-term yield.
Whether pursuing a 1031 exchange, building passive revenue streams, or seeking long-term wealth preservation in real estate, this Wendy’s provides a best-in-class solution in a Class-A suburban corridor.
