Here is what Sterling Partners Equity Advisors has to say about National Storage Affiliates Trust (NYSE:NSA) in its Q4 2021 investor letter:
“National Storage Affiliates Trust is a real estate investment trust focused on the ownership, operation, and acquisition of self-storage properties located within the top 100 metropolitan statistical areas throughout the United States.
NSA continues to add self-storage properties to its portfolio with 76 wholly-owned self-storage properties during the third quarter and during the 4th quarter prior to reporting results acquired 39 properties.
Our thesis is that outside storage will continue to gain share from residential and commercial properties primarily due to growing needs for convenience and security. We believe that the purchase price is fair and that NSA will continue to offer us good returns over time.”
