Our Strategy

Storage Corner Group acquires self-storage and small-bay light-industrial properties across coastal California and the Mountain West, and we structure each transaction around the financial, management, tax, and timing needs of the seller.

Acquisition Criteria

Property Types

Self-Storage & Small-Bay Industrial

Existing facilities, conversions, and mixed-use with storage or industrial components.

Target Markets

Coastal CA & Mountain West

Primary and infill secondary markets; California, Utah, Idaho, and surrounding MSAs.

Project Size

$5M to $30M+

20,000+ NRSF preferred. Larger portfolios and smaller add-ons near existing assets considered.

Risk / Return Profile

Core-Plus to Opportunistic

Stabilized cash flow, value-add, or full repositioning. Vacancy and deferred maintenance welcome.

Deal Strategies

Rehab to Entitlement

Reposition, conversion, expansion, entitlement plays, and covered land holds.

Hold Period

Long-Term Hold

We buy to own and operate, with opportunistic exits. Not a quick-flip buyer.

Portfolio Creation

Hub-and-Spoke

We aggregate regional clusters around existing management hubs, so nearby deals get a premium look.

Equity Structures

Tactical & Flexible

Deal-by-deal, tenancy-in-common, recapitalizations, joint ventures, and Co-GP structures.

Track Record

Since 2015 we have acquired and operate 27 properties totaling 1.33M square feet, and we are a Top-100 U.S. self-storage owner. We are well-capitalized, vertically integrated, and underwrite in-house, which means quick answers and certainty of close. Brokers who bring us deals get fast, honest feedback and a buyer who performs. We pay numerous buyer-broker fees for off-market opportunities, and we protect the brokers who bring them to us.

Creative Deal Structuring

Structured around the seller

Every ownership situation is different. We tailor each transaction to what matters most to you, across four dimensions:

01

Financial

Whether you want maximum proceeds today or income over time, we structure to fit.

  • All-cash purchases
  • Installment sales and seller financing
  • Partial sales and retained ownership interests
02

Tax

We pursue tax-efficient outcomes for families and partnerships facing a liquidity event.

  • Family and partnership recapitalizations
  • 1031 exchange accommodation and flexible timing
  • Structures designed to defer or manage gain recognition
03

Management

Step away from day-to-day operations without selling, or hand over the keys entirely.

  • Master leases with purchase options
  • Third-party management through our operating platform
  • Transition planning for on-site staff and tenants
04

Timing

Estate planning, partnership wind-downs, and loan maturities all run on different clocks. So do we.

  • Quick closings when speed matters
  • Extended or staged closings when it doesn't
  • Discreet off-market processes, no broad marketing required

No harmful pesticides, rodenticides, or herbicides.
