Advantage Storage Lubbock Acquisition
Deal value: $11.2M
Acquisition of Advantage Storage, a 7.6-acre self-storage facility with 85,890 sq ft and 540 units in Lubbock, Texas, by Michael Postar (Affordable Storage) from Cross Heritage Storage.
Michael Postar's acquisition of Advantage Storage in Lubbock represents a consolidation play within the self-storage sector, expanding Affordable Storage's regional footprint from 23 existing locations across Texas to capture additional market share in the Lubbock metropolitan area. The investment capitalizes on stable self-storage fundamentals and the asset's recent 2018 development, which provides modern infrastructure and climate-controlled units commanding premium rental rates. This transaction reflects confidence in the resilience of self-storage as an alternative real estate asset class, particularly in secondary markets where supply constraints and demographic growth support occupancy and pricing power.
