Investment Summary

A new-construction self-storage asset offered at core stability with value-add returns.

Lee & Associates is pleased to present More Space Storage, a 416-unit, 96,810-square-foot self-storage facility on 8.05 acres in Papillion, Nebraska. Constructed in two phases in 2020 and 2023, the Property is one of the newest and highest-quality self-storage assets in the Omaha metropolitan area.

Physical occupancy improved from approximately 68% in early 2024 to 90.1% as of February 2026, demonstrating strong and sustained demand in the Papillion / La Vista trade area. The forward operating case incorporates a modest blended rate increase, normalization of below-market concessions, and standard ancillary revenue programs already implemented at peer institutional facilities.

The investment is best characterized as a yield acceleration opportunity, where the majority of value creation is achieved through operational execution within the first 12 to 24 months of ownership.

I

New-construction quality, no near-term capital exposure.

Metal frame, slab-on-grade, insulated construction with decades of remaining useful life. Modern drive-up access, climate-controlled units, digital video surveillance, and 24-hour tenant access.

II

Revenue upside is rate-driven, not speculative.

The Property is 90%+ physically occupied. Value creation does not rely on absorbing vacant units. It relies on closing the gap between in-place rates and market rates already being achieved by comparable facilities.

III

Strong submarket fundamentals.

Sarpy County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Nebraska. The 1-mile trade area carries a $148,014 average household income, supporting premium pricing and sticky tenancy.

The facility layout provides efficient drive-up access for all garage and outdoor units, with paved drive aisles capable of accommodating truck and trailer maneuverability.

Pro-Forma

Stabilized operating model.

Stabilized NOI of $456,985 reflects a conservative forward operating case incorporating modest rate increases, concession normalization, and standard ancillary revenue programs.

Line Item2025 ActualStabilized
Total Revenue$541,950$606,431
Operating Expenses($130,871)($149,446)

Value Creation

Quantifiable, near-term NOI expansion.

The path from in-place to stabilized is specific and defensible. Each line is a standard operational practice for any professional operator.

Tenant protection plan implementation$22,734
Systematic late-fee collection$8,000
Total Identified Upside$61,005+

The opportunity: $46,320 per year of trapped value sits in the rate gap. The current $3,860 monthly variance ($46,320 annually), driven by concessions in the climate-controlled segment and the $23/unit rate gap on the 10x16x8 garage, represents $735K of value creation at the 6.3% going-in cap rate once burned off through ECRI and street-rate alignment. Outdoor segment is already at street and serves as proof of pricing power. This is before any expansion-pad, climate-conversion, or operating-leverage upside.

Total in-place monthly revenue: $40,741 against standard rate total of $44,600. The $3,860/month variance is concentrated in the Garage segment, primarily on the 10x16x8 unit type where 123 units carry an average actual rate of $76.64 vs. $100.00 standard.
