A Process Built Around You.
We've refined our acquisition process over hundreds of transactions to be as smooth, transparent, and equitable as possible. Here's exactly what to expect when you work with Simply Self Storage Corporation.
Confidential & No Obligation
Initial Consultation
Every acquisition begins with a conversation. We take the time to understand your property, your goals, and your timeline — whether you're ready to sell now or just exploring your options. There's no pressure and no obligation. We believe in building relationships first.
- Completely confidential — we sign an NDA upon request
- Discuss your timeline and any concerns you may have
- Learn about our acquisition criteria and process
- No obligation to proceed at any stage
Data-Driven & Transparent
Property Evaluation
Our acquisitions team conducts a thorough, professional analysis of your facility. We review financials, occupancy trends, market conditions, physical condition, and competitive landscape to arrive at a fair, defensible valuation — one we can explain to you line by line.
- Review of trailing 12-month financials and rent rolls
- Market analysis and competitive positioning
- Physical assessment and deferred maintenance review
- Comparable transaction analysis
Clear Terms, No Surprises

- Clear due diligence period and timeline
- Defined earnest money and contingencies
- Flexible closing structures to meet your needs

Questions We Hear Most Often
How long does the entire process take?
From initial consultation to closing, most transactions take 90–120 days. We can move faster when needed — we've closed in as few as 45 days for motivated sellers.
Do I need to prepare anything before our first call?
No preparation is required. A general sense of your facility size, location, and occupancy is helpful, but we can gather details during our conversation.
Will you keep my sale confidential?
Absolutely. We treat every inquiry with strict confidentiality. We can execute a mutual NDA before any information is shared if you prefer.
What types of facilities do you acquire?
We acquire self storage facilities of all sizes — from small single-story properties to large climate-controlled multi-story facilities. We operate in 35 states and are actively seeking acquisitions nationwide.
What happens to my employees after the sale?
We have a strong track record of retaining on-site staff. We evaluate each situation individually and work hard to ensure continuity for the people who've helped build your business.
How is the purchase price determined?
We use a combination of net operating income (NOI) capitalization, comparable transaction analysis, and market conditions to arrive at a fair, data-driven valuation. We explain every component of our offer.
