The conversion of new customer rate reporting from per-unit to per-square-foot reduces the number by roughly 100 basis points, meaning the reported 2.5% growth is actually ~3.5% on a like-for-like basis.
“While similar, they aren't exactly apples to apples, and that reduces the number by about 100 basis points. So on a like-for-like basis, moving rates would have averaged about 3.5% for the quarter.”
The company's data indicates new supply is declining sharply: the percentage of same-store square footage with new competitor deliveries in its trade area was over 20% in 2021-2023, falling to 8% in 2025 and expected at 6% in 2026.
“And it went down to 13% in 24, 8% in 25, and we think it will be 6% in 26. So, clearly, new supply is not going to zero, but it's clearly moving in the right direction”
The Los Angeles rent control headwind is less severe than feared because despite lower rates in restricted areas, occupancy has filled in to ~96%, reducing churn and is priced below market.
“We have seen occupancy filled in LA County. It's approximately 96% already, and we haven't even started the leasing season.”
Management noted that sale prices for the last two material acquisitions they saw were priced at sub-5% initial cap rates without enough growth to make them interesting, indicating elevated asset pricing in the market.
“the last two material transactions we saw priced at, on our numbers, sub five initial cap rates without enough growth to make them interesting in the future.”
Management acknowledges PSA as a strong competitor that may improve after integrating SmartStop's assets, potentially increasing competitive intensity.
“I think PSA is a very good operator, and I'm confident those stores will do better under one unified platform than the system NSA was pursuing. So we'll continue to compete with them.”
Great. Thanks for taking my questions. Maybe you could give us some high-level thoughts on the competitive impact to the market from PSA and NSA being combined.
Well, I mean, we compete with all of those stores now, so we'll continue to compete with them in the future. I think PSA is a very good operator, and I'm confident those stores will do better under one unified platform than the system NSA was pursuing. So we'll continue to compete with them. They've been a good competitor in the past. They'll be a good competitor to us in the future. And it's one reason we never stop trying to get better, never stop trying to sharpen our tools, because we know we have good competitors who are doing the same.
