Is Self-Storage a Better Investment Than Other Real Estate Asset Classes?

By Garrett Byrd



Self-storage stands out as a resilient and profitable investment option, often surpassing the performance of other real estate asset classes such as apartments, retail spaces, and office buildings, as well as the S&P 500. Notably, self-storage has shown remarkable consistency in its average rate of returns, maintaining stability even during economic downturns.





According to the National Association of Real Estate Investment Trusts (NAREIT), self-storage has achieved an impressive average annual return of 17.26% over the past 29 years, from 1994 to 2022. This performance outshines several other asset classes over the same period:


  • Self Storage 17.26%

  • Apartments: 12.62%

  • Retail: 11.21%

  • Office: 10.38%

  • S&P 500: 9.16%


These statistics highlight self-storage as a compelling investment, combining resilience and high returns to offer a superior option for investors looking to diversify their portfolios.


The bonus is owning the self-storage asset (real estate + business), not just a share or stock. As the asset can frequently be valued at 100% more than its construction cost once fully leased up. It serves as an unmatched nest egg for your retirement and generational wealth!
