The Problem
Storage diligence runs on whatever the broker, sponsor, or operator chooses to share. That isn't enough:
- Operator-reported occupancy in CIMs is inconsistent and self-marked
- Public-comp rate data is fragmented across 12+ brand websites and updated unpredictably
- There is no API for storage rate data — your team writes scrapers per acquisition
- You can't see how the unit-size mix actually performs across markets
What You Can Do
Acquisition Underwriting
Pull the target facility's brand-page rate history, plus its peer set within the metro. Stress-test sponsor pro forma rates against actual metro medians and trends. Quantify upside / downside for stabilized rate.
Portfolio Analytics
Track each portfolio asset's rates against its sub-market median weekly. Surface deteriorating assets before NOI shows it. Surface assets with pricing power your operator hasn't captured yet.
Market Selection
Compare rate trends, availability signals, and unit-mix premiums across all 12 Sunbelt metros. Identify the sub-markets accelerating and the ones rolling over before consensus catches up.
Webhook Alerts on Rate Movements
Subscribe specific facilities or metros and get a webhook when rates move significantly. Wire it into Slack, your IC pipeline, or your asset-management dashboard.
