Self storage street rates were flat in February as consumer relocation trends and demand revert to pre-pandemic levels, according to the latest National Self Storage Report from Yardi Matrix<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Growth of the average national street rate for all unit sizes was -2.8 percent year-over-year, unchanged from January. Rates for standard-size 10×10 units fell by 3.1 percent year-over-year for non-climate-controlled (NON CC) units and 4.1 percent for climate-controlled (CC) units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite lack of rate growth, the industry is in a comfortable position as the typically busy spring leasing season approaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cAlthough fundamentals softened slightly in the fourth quarter owing to normal seasonal patterns and some customers balking at increasing rates, demand is strong and occupancy remains ahead of where it normally is this time of year,\u201d states the report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re seeing good demand from new customers coming into the system,\u201d Public Storage\u2019s chief financial officer, Tom Boyle, said recently. \u201cMove-in volumes through the (winter) are up double digits.\u201d Self storage-foused REITs are forecasting mid-single digit net operating income growth in 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Annual street rate growth continued to be negative for most of the top 31 metros in February. Only three of the top 31 Matrix self storage metros had a year-over-year increase in street rates for 10×10 NON CC units, while rates were negative in 25 of the top metros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
