Newport Beach, CA (February 22, 2022) – Buchanan Street Partners (Buchanan), a Newport Beach, CA-based real estate investment management firm, has acquired a new three-story, climate-controlled self-storage facility located at 15443 Fairfield Ranch Road, Chino Hills, CA.
The 95,500 SF facility is comprised of 920 self-storage units and was purchased for $24.5 million in an off-market transaction with a private developer. The transaction marks the third California self-storage facility acquired by Buchanan within the past twelve months.
Buchanan acquired the property upon completion of construction at certificate of occupancy. The new class A self-storage facility sits in a retail center adjacent to the 71 Freeway, at the Soquel Canyon Parkway/Central Avenue exit. Westport Properties, Inc. will act as third-party manager for the facility, operating the property under their US Storage Centers brand.
“We’re thrilled to add this new facility to our storage portfolio. The Chino Hills transaction was an excellent opportunity for us to gain a presence within the rapidly growing Inland Empire. We feel this property is ideally situated to serve the residents and businesses of Chino Hills,” said Feerooz Yacoobi, Vice President, Buchanan Street Partners. “We continue to pursue well-positioned facilities across the Western U.S. through stabilized, early lease up, and certificate of occupancy acquisitions.”
The new facility offers best-in-class climate-controlled storage space and incorporates new industry proptech with the Noke Smart Entry access system by Janus, allowing tenants to wirelessly gain access into the facility and their storage unit.
Buchanan recently acquired two other new self-storage facilities in Southern California including acquisitions in Chula Vista and Vista. The firm intends to build a $500 million portfolio of institutional quality self-storage assets throughout the Western U.S. Buchanan is also an active direct lender for self-storage bridge and construction financing.
