We’re seeing a few major shifts throughout the self storage industry . First, transactions are up. Sellers are finally accepting reality , slashing prices, and taking lower offers. Frank DeSalvo , managing director of self storage investment sales at Franklin Street, is seeing self storage facilities sell for up to 50% off their list price . At the same time, we’re seeing more signs of distress , which could ramp up in the coming months as interest rates remain high and debt comes due . But if this is the case, where are all these deals?
