Acquiring, Developing & Operating Self Storage and IOS Assets

The Lainger Group partners with investors to acquire, develop, and operate self storage and industrial outdoor storage facilities designed to generate long-term value, recurring income, and scalable growth.

Self Storage & IOS Investment Thesis

Two Real Estate Sectors Built Around Space, Access & Demand

Self storage and industrial outdoor storage offer investors exposure to durable demand, recurring income, land-backed value, and operating upside.

📦

2.1B+ SF Self Storage Market

The U.S. self-storage market has more than 2.1 billion square feet of space, making it one of the largest specialized real estate sectors.

📈

Rising Household Usage

U.S. household self-storage usage increased from 11.1% in 2022 to 13.4% in 2024, showing continued consumer adoption.

🏗️

51M SF Projected 2026 Supply

Yardi Matrix projects roughly 51.1 million square feet of new self-storage supply in 2026, reflecting continued development activity.

🔑

Demand Driven by Life Events

Moving, downsizing, remodeling, business inventory, estate transitions, and lack of space continue to drive self-storage demand.

🚛

IOS Serves Essential Users

Industrial outdoor storage supports contractors, fleets, equipment users, logistics companies, vehicle storage, and service-based operators.

🌎

Land-Driven Logistics Growth

IOS is gaining attention as a land-driven logistics real estate strategy where location, access, zoning, and scarcity can create value.

💰

Potential Yield Premium

IOS assets may trade at an estimated 100–150 basis points above traditional industrial cap rates, depending on location and asset quality.

⚙️

Operational Upside

Pricing, occupancy, leasing, site improvements, security, automation, and expense control can all help increase NOI over time.

Operating Platform

Built on Real Storage Operations

The Lainger Group is a real estate investment and development company focused on acquiring, developing, and operating self-storage and industrial outdoor storage assets. Through Laing Self Storage, we have built an operating platform serving customers across multiple New York markets, with facilities positioned around local demand, convenience, security, and long-term usability.

Our growth has come from practical execution: identifying underserved locations, improving facility performance, expanding visibility, strengthening operations, and creating a better customer experience. We focus on assets where disciplined management, local market knowledge, and hands-on ownership can turn underutilized real estate into durable income-producing property.

Self-storage and IOS both benefit from simple but powerful demand drivers: people need space, businesses need flexibility, and well-located real estate becomes harder to replace over time. The Lainger Group is building around those fundamentals with a focus on recurring revenue, operational control, asset quality, and long-term value creation.
