Aries Capital Closes $46M of Financing for Self-Storage Properties

Chicago-based Aries Capital closed $46 million in construction, bridge and permanent debt financing for new and existing self-storage facilities in California, Colorado, Florida and Texas. The financing was arranged on behalf of three separate clients by director of capital markets Brandon Perdeck, director of acquisitions Matt Carney and assistant VP Steve Adams.

The transactions include a $17.5-million construction loan for Diamond Development Partners’ Santa Clarita, CA facility; an $8.65-million, full-term interest-only, CMBS permanent loan for Southern Star Self Storage’s acquisition of a portfolio of four facilities in Colorado, Florida and Texas; and a $19.875-million interest-only loan for the refinancing and phase two construction of Vineburg Wine & Self Storage in Sonoma, CA.

“Self-storage has been an active asset class for Aries Capital,” said Perddeck. “Lenders like its stability and sustainable cash flow and are willing to finance self-storage properties at higher leverage and better pricing” compared to retail.
