Recent self-storage transactions reflect continued investor activity across a range of market conditions. While markets like Cheyenne (WY), Albany (GA), and Houston (TX) are all highly saturated – with supply ranging from 11 sf to 22 sf per capita – investors remain focused on localized demand drivers. Houston and Cheyenne benefit from larger populations, while demand in Albany is fueled by business use linked to various industries housed in the region and its role as a commercial hub in Southwest Georgia. In contrast, markets like Providence (RI) offer a compelling low-supply environment, with just 3 sf/capita, making it especially attractive from a long-term growth perspective. Collectively, these deals reflect market-specific strategies, ranging from targeting stabilized assets in saturated metros to pursuing growth opportunities in undersupplied areas.
