Niche Investment: Why Industrial Outside Storage Is Gaining Traction with Hansel Rodriguez of COARE (Ep 69)
If you’re looking for an alternative investment opportunity that’s well outside the usual suspects, this one is worth a look. Industrial Outside Storage, think equipment or supply storage for companies that have large items to store or operate. There are a few reasons this might be a good fit:Fragmented Market: Over 80% of industrial outdoor storage assets are owned by non-institutional (mom and pop) operators. This creates tremendous potential for portfolio consolidation and value creation, especially with a current estimated $166B of deals out there.Attractive Returns with Less Competition: By focusing on deals in the $1-10M range, there’s far less competition from institutional investors, allowing for cap rates north of 10%—a rarity in the real estate world, especially without leveraging debt.Strong Fundamentals, Limited Supply: IOS sites are often hard to replicate, thanks to strict zoning and city limitations. This acts as a natural barrier to new supply and helps secure long-term value for investors.If you’re an accredited investor looking to diversify with something truly unconventional—and income-focused—this fund deserves your attention. Listen to the full episode for all the details, and reach out if you want to discuss how this could fit into your portfolio.Contact COARE - https://www.coareindustrial.com/#Investing #Alternatives #RealEstate #IndustrialStorageTake the quiz - How Alternative Assets Can Fit in Your Portfolio - https://quiz.tryinteract.com/#/672ec387dca489a684704eee Ready for the next step?Subscribe to the Podcast: pod.link/1671924778Don't forget to leave a review!Follow Michelle for more financial tips:YouTube: youtube.com/@theunconventionalinvestor Instagram: instagram.com/michelle.e.moses Website: www.mefinancial.net Disclaimer: The information provided in this podcast is for general informational purposes only and should not be construed as professional financial advice.
