This episode of The Crexi Podcast features Brett Hatcher and Gabriel Coe of Marcus & Millichap’s The Hatcher Group talking about self storage properties. The Crexi Podcast explores various aspects of the commercial real estate industry in conversation with some of the top CRE professionals in the industry. In each episode, we feature different guests to tap into their wealth of CRE expertise and explore the latest trends and updates from the world of commercial real estate. In this episode, Crexi’s Matt Cors sits with Brett and Gabriel to discuss the fundamentals of self storage assets, where the trajectory of the sector is headed, and how COVID has impacted activity in the self storage industry. Some key takeaways include:Since the Great Recession, self storage property types have seen a surge in investment interest that’s only been accelerated by COVID-19’s economic impact. Most recently, Blackstone acquired Simply Self Storage from Brookfield Asset Management for $1.2 billion.Self storage comes in Class A, B, and C properties, which refers to the asset’s overall square footage and location.Developers are more often opting to build Class A, larger self storage units with higher square footage. If the demand is high enough and the market isn’t oversaturated, you’re more likely to increase your cash flow.When it comes to square footage, self storage is measured in rentable units instead of the overall size of the property. The units are what generate income for the property.As the sale price for self storage properties has increased, so too have development costs for shovel-ready self storage development sites. Many buyers take advantage of redeveloping or adding square footage to existing buildings, but great deals are still available on the market for interested developers. **A note: this conversation originally aired as an episode of Crexi’s PRO Perspective webinars.

In this episode of The Crexi Podcast, Branson Blackburn and Matt Davis of Trinity REIS discuss the rising success of Dollar General and net leases.The Crexi Podcast explores various aspects of the commercial real estate industry in conversation with some of the top CRE professionals in the industry. In each episode, we feature different guests to tap into their wealth of CRE expertise and explore the latest trends and updates from the world of commercial real estate. In this episode, Crexi’s Yannis Papadakis sits with Branson and Matt to discuss the rise of Dollar General and other net lease successes. The conversation ranges from the first appearance of discount stores, their resilience amid turbulent economic times, and how the Trinity REIS team has transacted more than 120 Dollar General assets in 2020. Some key takeaways include:Net lease assets have been steadily growing in popularity as investors largely move from assets that require management and attention to more hands-off options.COVID-19 has made commercial buyers more conscious: Dollar General is an attractive investment option because it weathered the storm in the early days of the pandemic.Dollar General leases have evolved over the last decade. They began as double net leases, where landlords were responsible for maintenance and lease terms were shorter. Today, Dollar Generals are opting for longer term, triple net leases. Longer-term leases are far more attractive to investors, particularly amid the pandemic.Dollar Generals in urban markets typically sell at lower cap rates, thanks to the promise of consumer demand. In more rural areas, too, cap rates are steadily compressing as more and more investors are attracted to Dollar General’s lease structures.**A note: this conversation originally aired as an episode of Crexi’s PRO Perspective webinars.
