Acquisitions
Moving forward, and particularly over the next seven to eight years, Five Star Development plans to acquire or develop self-storage facilities across the Northern and Central Plains, Midwestern, and Rocky Mountain regions. Guided by nearly forty years of acquisitions, development and property management, we plan to rigorously pursue a competitive share of the self-storage markets in our targeted areas.
At Five Star, we take a grass-roots approach to acquisitions by trying to build relationships and provide options to facility owners. The experienced team at Five Star has the skills and expertise to close transactions that work for both Five Star and the seller. Whether you’re looking to liquidate and move on to the next chapter in life, or you would like to entertain the option of a tax deferred transaction and the possibility of continued dividends, Five Star’s team will work with you every step of the way.
When seeking and evaluating acquisitions, Five Star determines which markets possess strong community growth characteristics with lower institutional pressure. By implementing the current management model, existing and new Five Star properties are always focused on increasing returns on our investors’ capital.
