Demand for self storage units is steady, so street rates remained at record highs last month, according to the latest National Self Storage Report from Yardi Matrix.
Average U.S. street rates for 10X10 non-climate-controlled (NON CC) units remained at $132 in June, matching the all-time high set last month. Climate controlled (CC) 10×10 units were an average of $151, also an all time high.
The latest rates signal an expected slowdown in growth. Nationwide, the overall average street rate, which includes all unit sizes and types, grew 2.1 percent year-over-year in July, a 210-basis-point drop compared to June’s annual rate growth.
“With strong demand and street rates at all-time highs, storage operators have more opportunity to increase rents for existing customers and replace rate-sensitive existing customers with new customers at the elevated street rates,” say Matrix analysts.
During recent second-quarter earnings calls, several REIT executives said they expect seasonality to return in 2022’s second half after several quarters of unusually low move-outs. The number of customers moving out is likely to normalize later this year.
While street rates are shrinking in some areas of the country, growth remains the healthiest in the Southeast. For 10×10 NON CC units, nine of the top 31 metros had street rate increases greater than five percent in July, while rates decreased in four. For 10×10 CC units, only two of the top 31 had five percent or more growth, while eight experienced negative growth.
