UpLift Development Group LLC has acquired 18 self-storage properties in the high country west of Denver, in a deal the company says is the largest of its kind in Colorado's history. The properties, totaling approximately 500,000 square feet and more than 3,000 units, are located along Interstate 70 and U.S. Highway 40 in several mountain towns.
Why it matters
This acquisition represents a major shift in the mountain storage landscape, as these regions have historically had high barriers to entry and a lack of institutional-grade storage solutions. UpLift plans to modernize the facilities and expand the portfolio, which will provide enhanced storage options for mountain enthusiasts and support the local economies.
The details
The 18 self-storage properties are located in Dumont, Georgetown, Idaho Springs, Empire, Tabernash, Granby, and Grand Lake. UpLift plans to apply its "Class-A" property management philosophy, investing resources to modernize the facilities with state-of-the-art technologies, enhanced security, and remote customer accessibility. The company also intends to expand the portfolio by adding more than 70,000 square feet of new development, including climate-controlled units and specialized ski lockers.
