Real estate
Preparing for the next decade of real estate investments
Key takeaways
- The U.S. self-storage sector has been a desirable property type throughout multiple real estate cycles.
- The Asia Pacific self-storage sector is growing but remains relatively nascent compared to the U.S. and with bifurcated rental performance across different regional markets.
- The European market for self-storage is very immature compared to the U.S. Even in the more developed markets like Sweden and the U.K. provision rates are only a small fraction of the U.S.
The self-storage sector is favorably positioned for resilience and out-performance throughout cycles as its fundamental demand drivers rely less on economic growth and more on demographics and life changes.”
