  • CSSA Plays a Pivotal Role in Defeating Prop 15

    Thursday, November 12, 2020 4:38 PM | Ross Hutchings (Administrator)

    To all California Self Storage Operators –

    CONGRATULATIONS – we have defeated Proposition 15 (Split Roll tax)!

    CLICK HERE to read the article about this defeat.

    The California Self Storage Association in collaboration with the Self Storage Association (national association) led the fight on behalf of the self storage industry in California. Our thanks to Brian Caster, A-1 Self Storage/Caster Properties and Ken Nitzberg, Devon Self Storage who led the fundraising effort from self storage businesses. According to the Wall Street Journal, our coalition (NO on Prop 15) raised over $74 million. The self storage industry raised over $3.5 million - that means self storage accounted for nearly 5% of the funds collected to defeat this proposition! Considering all the commercial property owners throughout the state, that is very respectable.  THANK YOU to all who donated. 

    CSSA and SSA joined a collation, the NO ON PROP 15. Tino Rossi, Meridian Pacific Inc, from the No on Prop 15 said, “Congratulations to the SSA and CSSA for their defeat of Prop 15. Your grassroots efforts coupled with your tremendous financial support pushed this over the top. Your members should be so proud of this campaign and the part they played in it. Victory!!!”

     

    On behalf of the California Self Storage Association and ALL self storage businesses – THANK YOU for your grassroots efforts – letters to colleagues, friends, and tenants. We truly DID make a difference!

    Bancap Self Storage Group Providing

    2020 Property Value Change Reports

    For California Self Storage Owners

    Free report provided to help counter uncertainty for self storage owners

            September 15, 2020: This year has already had more than its fair share of chaos and uncertainty.  Although the self storage industry has proven to be more resilient than many other businesses, there has still been a roller-coaster of events and market condition changes affecting the operations, income and values of storage properties. 

    To help independent owners of storage properties in California, Bancap Self Storage Group, Inc. is currently offering a free personalized report on how the value of their storage business has changed in 2020. This “no obligation” report is available for a limited time only as free service to the industry.

    Bancap Self Storage Group is known as the “#1 Self Storage Broker in California” with an unmatched track record of self storage sales spanning over four decades.  Dean Keller, President of Bancap Self Storage Group has also spent his entire career giving back with leadership and service on the boards of the Self Storage Association, Self Storage Association Foundation, California Self Storage Association, and the Storage Operators Networks in both Southern California and Northern California, in addition to Rotary Clubs and many other local and regional charities.

    “Whether it is for estate planning purposes, updating financial statements, or just simple curiosity, we always think it is a good idea to know the actual value of your storage properties” said Keller. “We know that most people love their storage business and have no interest in selling at this time. But since we are deeply engaged in the marketplace and constantly doing these types of analysis for potential sellers any way, we are happy to provide this as a free service to all California owners in this unprecedented time.”
