Alturas, California
Convenience Store Liquor Store Retail Strip
Presenting a ±4,100 SF retail strip center strategically located on Main Street and situated on a 0.20-acre lot. This rare mixed-use opportunity offers a combination of owner-user potential and passive income, featuring Alturas’ only laundromat, a fully leased hair salon, and a vacant liquor store space with an active ABC Type 21 license (beer, wine & spirits). The liquor store was closed in September 2024 due to an electrical fire, but all repairs have been completed, and the space is now fully functional and ready for reactivation. The laundromat is currently operating, benefiting from steady demand as the area's sole laundromat. The hair salon remains leased and generates monthly income. This is an ideal opportunity for an investor-operator to capitalize on a value-add scenario with limited competition in a tight-knit rural market. Seller financing is available with a 50% down payment. Please contact me via email for further information: ksingh.mkcommercialrealty@gmail.com.

California Liquor Store Market Insight
California liquor store valuations are heavily influenced by ABC license type and local moratorium status. Type 21 off-sale general licenses (full spirits) are significantly more valuable than Type 20 beer-and-wine licenses. In moratorium markets — including many neighborhoods in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Sacramento — existing ABC licenses can be worth $200,000 to $1M+ separately from the underlying business, as no new licenses are being issued. Most California independent liquor stores under $2M trade at 2.5x to 4x seller's discretionary earnings plus inventory at cost. License transfer in California typically takes 60-120 days through the ABC and requires escrow. High-volume urban locations in Los Angeles, Oakland, and Fresno generating $75,000 to $120,000+ in monthly gross sales are among the most sought-after opportunities on BizBen.
Why Invest in a California Liquor Store
- ABC license moratoriums in many California cities make existing licenses scarce and highly valuable
- Strong and consistent retail demand across beer, wine, spirits, lotto, and ancillary products
- Semi-absentee and absentee ownership models are common, making liquor stores ideal for investors
- Additional revenue from California Lottery commissions, ATM fees, check cashing, and tobacco
