exisiting storage facilities

New Climate Controlled Self Storage Facility

Through our integrated platform of market research and underwriting, we qualify existing properties that exhibit high potential for growth under our direct management. Since larger, publicly traded companies own less that 25% of existing facilities, smaller, independent operators control much of the market. Many of these independent facilities operate undermanaged and, therefore, underperforming. Through the process of acquiring and self-managing these facilities, they become an asset to our self-storage investment portfolio.  

  • Integrated Tech and Automation
  • Systems and Procedures
  • Rebranding (Ex: StorCo)
  • Rent Management

conversions

Consumer trends have changed the landscape for retail spaces. Because the demand for these large buildings has decreased, it allows us to purchase these buildings, in highly trafficked, prime locations for well below replacement cost Our team excels at finding the right empty spaces, in the right locations to add value to the community and our portfolio. Also, by maintaining existing structural features of the property, many conversions require fewer city approvals, resulting in faster completion and reduced cost. 

  • Faster Build Times
  • Lower Cost Per Sq. Ft. to Construct
  • Sale/Redevelop Out-Partials
  • Reduces Risk of New Competitors
  • Reduces Risk of New Competitors with Infield Locations

Ground up development offers the ability to capitalize on High Demand Markets during the site selection. Our team also researches and capitalizes on all available incentives that lead to cost savings and faster approvals such as LEED and PACE certifications, tax credit and energy savings. Technology and automation can also be built into the facility, reducing operational costs upon completion. Furthermore, projects are tailored to provide the most in-demand unit sizes for that specific market, reducing lease-up time. 

  • Site Selection in High Storage Demand Markets
  • Integrate Tech and Automation Into the Building
  • Incentives Etc. LEED, PACE, Energy, and Warranties
  • Construct Highest-Demand Units Based on the Market

Subsidiaries of Investa Capital

Investa Capital knew that with outside construction and third party managers, we couldn’t fully control our process and our stores so we looked to bring all areas of the self-storage industry in houseThis birthed the StorCo brand to manage everything from hiring to customer perception and to serve our communities.  Going a step further and having worked together on several builds, Investa Capital acquired a trusted partner, BBi Constructors to propel the company even furtherNow, having all areas of development, construction, and management under our control makes Investa Group a force to be reckoned with in the self-storage industry.
