Triple Net Gas Stations

Saeed's investment strategy involves buying gas stations with triple net leases, creating passive income streams that require minimal management while preserving capital.

Key Points:

  • Investment Structure:

    • Purchase gas station properties
    • Set up triple net leases where tenants:
      • Operate the business
      • Pay for all maintenance
      • Handle property management
    • Owner just owns the buildings
  • Financial Philosophy:

    • Don't spend first-level income (direct business revenue)
    • Only spend income generated from investments (second derivative)
    • Example: $1M business income must be invested first, only spend the returns
  • Implementation Example:

    • Bought a gas station before having a child
    • Gas station generates $6K/month
    • Uses this passive income to fund child-related expenses
  • Portfolio Approach:

    • Owns approximately 40 gas stations
    • Creates multiple streams of passive income
    • Minimal time investment required for management
    • Focuses on property ownership rather than business operations

This model provides steady, passive income while preserving the original capital investment, creating generational wealth through real estate and triple net leases.
