Exit Strategies: Luck Favors the Prepared!
What a great time for the self-storage industry. We have experienced a record number of transactions over the last several years and each year we seem to be breaking records with regards to low cap rates, rental rate growth, NOI growth, PSF prices and actual value for every dollar of NOI. Many are calling it a generational high in values! The contrarian in me can’t help but think that now may be a good time to take some chips off the table. It’s clear that some of the “smart money” took steps to take profits and hedge their bets by selling and repositioning their self-storage assets. Below I have outlined a few exit strategies that owners may consider as they assess their exit strategies and overall investment objectives. Remember – you never go broke taking a profit.
