However, demand for RV and boat storage should remain somewhat stable as existing owners still need a place to store their toys.

It will be interesting to see the new data for 2023 when it comes out.

Rates in the Northwest appear stable. In some cases (RV and boat storage) they have gone up slightly.

Comment on RV/Boat Storage Market Poised for Further Growth, Yardi Matrix Reports by JC https://www.yardimatrix.com/blog/rv-boat-storage-market-poised-for-further-growth/#comment-1456 Tue, 20 Sep 2022 15:51:38 +0000 https://www.yardimatrix.com/blog/?p=4646#comment-1456 Invaluable information!

RV and boat storage demand has been on a rising trend for several years, while storage supply hasn’t kept pace with it.

As an investor, I’ve been looking for opportunities to enter this space for a long time. Having found no available RV storage facilities for sale in my market I decided to develop one instead. It’s been a long road, in large part because Cities and Counties don’t look favorably at RV and boat storage developments. Nevertheless, it looks like we’ll be able to open a new facility in Vancouver WA by early 2023. One of our goals is to utilize software and technology to the fullest extend possible to make this a highly automated facility.
