Oak Brook, Ill. – Inland Private Capital Corporation ("IPCC") is pleased to announce a new strategic relationship with Metro Storage LLC ("Metro"), a privately owned, fully integrated self-storage operating company. This partnership marks the launch of IPCC’s newest investment platform focused on strategically acquiring, owning and managing self-storage properties across the nation.
Metro has an established national management footprint, as well as a 40-year track record with in-place acquisitions and property management expertise that will allow IPCC to deliver best-in-class service through the ownership and management of self-storage properties.
“Strong operating fundamentals and low capital expenditures make the self-storage sector a desirable asset class for IPCC,” said Keith Lampi, president and chief operating officer of IPCC. “Given where we are in the current economic cycle, we believe the sector strikes a healthy balance of achieving stable long-term income and capital preservation. We are thrilled to enter the marketplace with an operating partner that shares a common corporate directive focused on creating and delivering value to investors.”
“Metro has a longstanding track record of providing self-storage investment opportunities to large institutional partners,” said Blair Nagel, CEO of Metro. “Through our newly established relationship with IPCC, we are excited about the prospect of assisting IPCC in providing similar opportunities in the self-storage space through its investment platform.”
