Why Newcoast

How Newcoast adds value.

Newcoast’s singular focus is finding the right opportunities paired with relentless execution to generate continued outperformance.

Our differentiated sourcing strategy centers on direct owner outreach using a proprietary database to identify acquisition targets and engage them directly. The relationships developed using this approach are critical to investment success. Our ability to find overlooked assets drives outsized returns.

Whether it’s reconfiguring an existing unit mix to improve competitiveness or phased development to capture excess market demand and increase investor demand at exit, Newcoast’s in-house development expertise is deployed with a clear line of sight to value creation.

Data-driven pricing, adjusted in real time.

A sophisticated, data-driven revenue management philosophy to every property in our portfolio. Pricing is adjusted in real time based on local market conditions that ensure consistent outperformance vs. the competition.

Skip past the four reasons
Why self storage

Why self storage continues to outperform.

01 / 04

Fragmented marketplace

Over 65% of storage facilities are owned by independent owner-operators outside of the top 100 operators. These facilities often lack the technological investment and operational sophistication necessary to compete in a rapidly consolidating market.

From plan to facility
02 / 04

Resilience through cycles

Self-storage has generated the highest cumulative private market returns of any real estate asset class over the past 20 years. Need-based demand and increasing utilization rate have allowed storage to outperform through up and down markets.

03 / 04

Sticky tenant base

The average self-storage tenant stays for nearly 19 months and growing as lifestyle changes and cost of living have made self-storage use a low-cost extension of home. Tenants’ inertia once in place results in reoccurring revenue that quietly compounds over time.

04 / 04

Low costs, high margins

No build-out costs, low maintenance, limited staffing needs, and minimal capital requirements result in one of the most attractive operating margin profiles across all of commercial real estate. More of each dollar earned reaches the bottom line in storage than almost any asset class.
