Site Selection & Feasibility
We assess potential self storage locations and opportunities, considering local demand, competition, demographics, access, visibility, property costs and achievable storage rates. Our feasibility advice helps investors and developers understand the potential capacity, revenue and commercial viability of a project before committing significant capital.
Financial Modelling & Investment Appraisal
We develop and review financial models to assess development costs, occupancy growth, rental rates, operating costs, cash flow and investment returns. This helps investors and developers understand capital requirements, test different scenarios and make informed decisions before acquiring or developing a self storage facility.
Development, Design & Fit-Out
We advise on the practical development of self storage facilities, from unit mix and space planning through access, security, customer flow and operational layout. Drawing on direct development and operating experience, we help clients create efficient, commercially viable facilities designed to maximise rentable space while providing a straightforward customer experience.
Operations, Automation & Remote Management
We help self storage operators improve day-to-day performance through better systems, processes and technology. This can include customer journeys, reservations and contracts, access control, payments, arrears management, reporting, staffing, automation and remote operating models designed to improve efficiency and scalability.
Acquisition & Due Diligence
We support investors considering the acquisition of existing self storage businesses and facilities. Our advice can include commercial due diligence, operational performance, pricing, occupancy, competition, property considerations and opportunities for improvement, helping you understand both the risks and potential before completing an acquisition.
Revenue Management & Pricing
We help operators improve revenue performance through structured pricing and revenue management. This includes reviewing unit rates, occupancy, discounts, promotions, existing customer increases and competitor pricing to develop a practical strategy focused on maximising revenue rather than occupancy alone.
Growth & Multi-Site Strategy
We advise established operators and investors looking to grow from a single facility into a larger self storage business. This can include acquisition strategy, new site development, centralised systems, staffing, reporting, marketing and operational processes designed to support efficient multi-site growth.
Investment Strategy & Exit
We advise self storage owners and investors throughout the investment lifecycle, from initial strategy and business planning through portfolio development and eventual exit. Our experience of acquiring, growing and selling self storage businesses helps clients consider how decisions made today may affect long-term value and future saleability.
