Self Storage Income 329. 2025 Recap: What We Bought, Sold, and Our 2026 Plans
2025 was a pivotal year for the self storage industry—but 2026 is about to be even bigger. We could get opportunities we haven’t seen in 15 years, but the buying window won’t last long. We’re taking full advantage, and in today’s episode, we’re outlining our exact 2026 plan.
We’re ringing in the New Year by sharing what we bought, sold, refinanced, and decided to hold in 2025. In the middle of 2025, things started to change—quickly. We’ve been buying up self storage as fast as we possibly can, because if you knew what we do, you wouldn’t be waiting on the sidelines. Interest rates are gradually falling, Americans are ready to move again, and storage demand could be rising. But sellers…they’re tired. The past few years have been hard, and you can take advantage.
The buying window is wide open, but it won’t last long. And this isn’t just blind faith. I’ll share the facts that tee up 2026 as a crucial year for growing wealth in self storage, plus how small investors can get ahead and build massive wealth once the “explosion” coming for storage starts to count down. And yes, I’ll even share a hint at my 2026 outlook and when I expect opportunities to reach their peak.
What you’ll learn in today’s show:
- Why 2026 could be the year that self storage “explodes” and demand surges
- What we bought, sold, and refinanced in 2025 (and what we’re buying more of in 2026)
- How long the buying window for self storage deals will last (get on it!)
- Enormous opportunities for small investors as the Baby Boomer fire sale continues
- Can’t find deals? This is precisely what we’re doing to get opportunities sent to us
- Our 2026 self storage outlook and investing plan for the next year
