SRS Capital Markets Executes Sales of 15 Chick-fil-A Properties Totaling $84 Million in Q1

SRS Real Estate Partners announced today its national Capital Markets group executed a total of 15 Chick-fil-A property sales in Q1 2026 totaling $84 million. This activity marks more than a 50% market share for SRS for all Chick-fil-A assets sold during the first quarter of 2026.

The recently developed properties were in the states of Florida, Texas, Georgia, Arkansas and Oklahoma and were a mix of ground lease (land ownership) and fee simple (land and improvement) sales with the majority of private buyers participating in a 1031 exchange.

"SRS is a market leader in the sale of single-tenant net lease assets, with a nationwide team of specialists and deep-rooted buyer relationships that drive consistent demand for high-quality investments, including Chick-fil-A-leased properties," said Patrick Luther, Senior Managing Principal at SRS Capital Markets.

Parker Walter, a Senior Associate with SRS added, "For investors, Chick-fil-A assets present a rare opportunity to acquire a best-in-class investment, supported by exceptional credit quality, with average unit volumes that rank among the highest in the drive-thru fast-food sector."

In the last 12 months, SRS has sold a total of 24 Chick-fil-A assets across the United States totaling over $120 million and currently has another six locations under agreement to be sold. The firm currently has 15 Chick-fil-A properties on the market in Florida, California, Texas, Connecticut, Alabama, and Georgia.

"It's easy to see why Chick-fil-A is best in class within the QSR space and why it remains one of the top names on a net lease investor's wish list," added Patrick Nutt, Senior Managing Principal at SRS Capital Markets.

Nutt continued, "To have the opportunity to be the market-leading brokerage group selling properties leased to Chick-fil-A is a great accomplishment for SRS, attributed to our deep knowledge of the brand and markets in which it is growing."

Chick-fil-A has achieved remarkable success in the quick-service industry with its streamlined menu, strong customer service culture, and industry-leading per-store sales. The brand has expanded well beyond its Southeast roots into high-demand markets across the Midwest, Northeast, and West Coast, including continued growth in California, while also pursuing international opportunities in Canada and the United Kingdom. Its disciplined site selection and hands-on operator model help maintain quality and consistency at scale, making Chick-fil-A a top-performing and highly sought-after brand in the drive-thru fast-food sector.

Last year, SRS Capital Markets completed more than $3.5 billion in deal volume comprised of 950 transactions across the nation. SRS currently has in excess of 845 properties actively on the market with a market value surpassing $3.7 billion.
