While self-storage may seem like a boring asset class unless watching reality TV, the opportunities the asset class offers are some of the most exciting in all of real estate. The ability to control costs and aggressively raise rents makes for an attractive value proposition. Strategic Storage Growth Trust is managed by SmartStop Storage, one of the largest owner operators of self-storage properties in the world. Growth Trust has leveraged SmartStop’s national brand recognition, marketing budget, and online reservation systems to create value in lease up and re-development opportunities in the self-storage space.
