WHy invest in Self Storage
Resilience in Market Fluctuations
Self Storage has been the one asset class to weather the darkest of times in recent market downturns, including the 2008 US financial crash and 2020-2021 global pandemic.
Low Maintenance
Self Storage facilities can have operating costs as low as 20-35%, depending on automation and software utilized. This allows for minimal overhead and higher returns on investments.
Higher Returns
The average return on Self Storage in the past 20 years has exceeded 20%, making Self Storage a highly desirable asset class to investors.
Higher Occupancy due to Demand
Managing facility occupancy with dynamic pricing mitigates risk of units staying unoccupied and increases revenue when units are in demand.
According to Forbes (2023), 40% of Americans rent a storage unit due to relocation, divorce, downsizing or death, with these life events occurring more often during market downturns.
