  Does Self Storage ever really Stabilize?

  Sep 14, 202622 minS3

  Stabilization in self-storage is a topic that often raises more questions than answers, and today we're diving into what it really means. Picture this: you've got a self-storage facility, and you're wondering if it's truly stabilized. This term essentially refers to when a property has hit its market potential—boasting stable occupancy, predictable income, and normalized expenses. However, we argue that even if you think you've hit that sweet spot, there's always room for improvement. In our chat, we explore the nuances of stabilization, dissecting my own experiences with two very different storage facilities. One has been a cash cow, continually improving in occupancy and revenue, while the other seems to be in a downward spiral. The contrast between these properties highlights that stabilization is not a one-size-fits-all scenario. The first facility has seen consistent growth, while the second illustrates the impact of market saturation and increasing competition. Together, we unpack the idea that true stabilization might be a myth, but aiming for that 80–90% mark is not only achievable but essential to maximizing your investment's potential.

  Matt Bilger – Self Storage Market Update

  Sep 7, 202638 minS3

  Today, we're diving into the shifting landscape of self-storage appraisals with our good buddy, Matt Bilger from Colliers International. The big takeaway? Self-storage appraisals are taking a hit compared to the booming years of 2019 and beyond, thanks to rising interest rates and economic uncertainty. Matt breaks down how the pandemic paused everything, then a flood of cheap money led to a wild appraisal frenzy, only for the brakes to slam on recently as interest rates climbed. We chat about the changing dynamics in the market, where larger players are now flexing their financial muscles while smaller operators are feeling sidelined. Plus, we sprinkle in some lighthearted banter about the quirks of the appraisal world and how AI is becoming a handy tool in the business.
