What We Develop & Acquire

Self-Storage

Self-storage is our bread and butter. We develop ground-up, multi-story facilities and pursue conversions and acquisitions in high-growth markets — built to institutional standards and positioned to perform.

Ground-up development, typically three-story facilities around 100,000 gross SF
Conversions of 90,000+ SF buildings in desirable, high-visibility markets
Acquisitions of under-managed or expandable assets
Markets with less than 8 SF of existing storage per capita and strong growth
