Self-Storage Investing is one of the youngest – and fastest growing – forms of commercial real estate.

From virtual non-existence before 1970, the industry has grown to over 58,000 self-storage facilities in the U.S. today. And it is a strictly American concept, as there are only 12,000 self-storage facilities in the rest of the world combined. With over 2.35 billion square feet of space – a land mass three times the size of Manhattan Island – the self-storage industry is an ever-growing opportunity.
