What is the break-even occupancy needed for self storage?
Un-leveraged self storage facilities have break-even occupancy figures in the low to mid 30% occupancy range. Leveraged assets have break-even occupancy figures in the low to mid 60% occupancy range. This is partially due to much lower overhead because of no “tenants, toilets, and trash”.
