Marcus & Millichap, a leading commercial real estate investment services firm with offices throughout the United States and Canada, brokered the sale of the new facility, completed earlier this month.

“A focus of Strategic Storage Growth Trust is to acquire self storage properties that have the opportunity to add value to our portfolio through active management,” said Wayne Johnson, chief investment officer. “This newly constructed, Class A property is located in an area with growing demand for self storage and provides an amenities package that we believe will be particularly attractive to our customers.”

The multistory facility is situated within the U.S. Highway 301 corridor. The property is monitored by video surveillance and includes a computerized gate or lobby access to units, as well as keypad entry to individual units.

Michael A. Mele and Luke Elliott, self storage investment specialists at Marcus & Millichap represented both parties in the sale.  

“This transaction resulted after working with the sellers since the mid-2000s, strategically advising and ultimately coordinating the successful sale to a strong operator, creating a very beneficial scenario for the buyer and seller,” said Mele.

Riverview is a part of the Greater Tampa Bay Area, one of fastest-growing metropolitan areas in Florida and the nation, according to U.S. News & World Report.
