The recent acquisitions in the self-storage sector showcase a strategic focus on diverse, high-potential markets, from suburban hubs to niche local areas. Valley Storage’s purchase of Garrett County Self Storage in McHenry, Maryland, capitalizes on its proximity to major attractions like the state’s largest deepwater lake, a county airport, Wisp Ski Resort, and a golf club, targeting a small tourism-driven market with growth potential. Vault Ventures acquired Self-Service Storage in Tallahassee, Florida, targeting stable demand for non-climate-controlled units in a key state capital. Meanwhile, the acquisition of Second Attic Storage by an unnamed buyer in Bessemer, Alabama, highlights investor interest in emerging markets with expansion opportunities.
