Acquisitions Criteria
What We Evaluate and Why It Matters to Owners
These criteria help Georgia self-storage owners get clearer underwriting, faster decisions, and fewer pricing surprises later in the process.
| Criterion | Target | Why It Helps Owners |
|---|---|---|
| Deal Size | 50,000-120,000 NRSF | Creates clear comps and supports confident underwriting early. |
| Geographic Focus | Georgia outside Atlanta core | Local operating context improves speed and decision quality. |
| Occupancy Range | 65%-90% | Supports realistic upside assumptions without aggressive projections. |
| Year Built | 5-15+ years | Balances durability with practical near-term improvement potential. |
| Expansion Opportunity | Preferred | Adds optional long-term value where demand and zoning support it. |
| Deal Type | On-market and off-market | Off-market paths often protect privacy and reduce process friction. |
