Why Self-Storage Facilities Continue to Be a Great Investment

Earlier in the year some real estate experts speculated that the supply of self-storage facilities outpaced demand. However, the recent spate of natural disasters, including two major hurricanes, has spurred demand for temporary storage in a storm’s aftermath.

This comes as no surprise to those involved in the self-storage industry. Historically, hurricanes are favorable to boosting demand for self-storage, according to industry specialists. So with demand at a high, is this the right time to become a self-storage owner yourself?

Industry experts believe that although the self-storage sector has been vulnerable to overbuilding in the past, the present demand for space coupled with the natural slowdown in construction of new facilities – at least in storm-ravaged areas – could make this a solid investment.

Read more about why you may want to get into this investment now.

And if you are looking for a different way to invest, with consistent returns and reduced responsibilities, perhaps a self-storage TIC investment is for you. Please visit out our website to learn more about these unique real estate investment opportunities.
