About Us
We are programmatic self storage syndicators
Dream it.
After years of tenants, toilets, and trash, we discovered self storage. With potentially fewer downsides than other avenues of investing in real estate, we dedicated our time to learning everything we could about self storage. We quickly realized that self storage was going to help us realize our dream of building a nationwide investing firm that is able to positively impact each of the communities we operate in.
Build it.
We sold off our residential and commercial rental portfolios to fully focus on investing in self storage. We reached out to self storage owners, operators, and investors to identify how we can bring value while pursuing our goal of owning a portfolio of self storage facilities with a value of more than $1 billion and positively impacting over 100,000 community members’ lives. To impact lives, our facilities donate to the local communities that they serve.
Grow it.
We buy value-add facilities and develop institutional grade self storage nationwide. We have transacted on over $220,000,000 in self storage within the last 3 years. Our team has the experience and ability to operate in all market sizes where other firms cannot compete, resulting in off-market deals at drastic discounts, quicker value-add, and greater downside mitigation.
We are committed to environmental, social, and governance standards
We are a minority owned company committed to diversity in our service providers and hiring strategies with no political affiliation of our charitable commitments. With over 70% of target customers living within a 3 mile radius of the facilities they use, we recognize self storage's unique ability to provide a positive impact on the communities we serve and take action with a 1% of cash-after-debt-service philanthropic contribution per facility. Each of our facilities must incorporate at least one of the following environmental factors: green energy features such as solar panels; native flora landscaping; electric car charging stations; and carbon credit offsets.
