In this episode, Rick Beal and Megan Smith discuss the impact of large self-storage operators on rates and the industry. They explore the consolidation happening in the self-storage sector, where major players are acquiring smaller and larger facilities at an unprecedented rate. This consolidation has resulted in a marketplace where a few companies have considerable influence over pricing structures. The hosts also discuss the implications of this trend for consumers and small owner-operators. They emphasize the need for owner-operators to adapt to the changing industry landscape and provide strategies for navigating rate games and handling rate increases.
