The Self-Storage Advisory Group of Cushman & Wakefield has been selected to exclusively market the sale of this 2-Property Self-Storage opportunity in Salem, OR.

This Portfolio presents a unique opportunity to acquire two stabilized self-storage facilities in Salem, Oregon less than a 15-minute drive from one another. The Portfolio consists of 164,752 rentable square feet of single-story self-storage spread across 1,268 units. The facilities, currently managed by Westport / U.S. Storage Centers, opened in 2006 and 1992 and have been well-maintained by Ownership. 88% of the rentable space is drive-up accessible units, which consumers highly seek due to convenience.

The Blossom Drive facility opened in 2006 and serves the residential neighborhoods of northeast Salem near Highway 99E and Interstate 5. As of July 2024, the 71,500 rentable square foot facility was 89% occupied with $16.66 in-place rents. Blossom Drive is 16 years newer than the average facility within its trade area. That, in conjunction with attractive supply and demand fundamentals and recent operating performance, gives it a strategic advantage over its competitors.

The Glen Creek Road facility opened in 1992 and is located in the commercial and residential core of West Salem, near downtown and the Capitol Building, with convenient access to Highway 22 and 221. As of July 2024, the 93,252 rentable square foot facility was 94% occupied with $16.75 in-place rents. This trade area features minimal new supply, with the average facility age in the mid-1990s. As a result, this asset’s condition, location, and vintage give it a competitive positioning, which is noticeable via its recent operating performance.
