While self storage is definitely becoming more and more popular over here, it is obviously nowhere near US levels. So I think I am fairly pleased with taking our occupancy from 0% up to 33% in 6 months. And of all of our customers who have moved in, only 6 have moved out again - the rest just keep on staying!
0-33% in 6 months? Good, bad or middling?? What do you guys think? Enquiries are certainly up, more people are phoning/coming in every week and last week we took record takings so I think it's looking good for the future
I'll keep an eye on this thread as there are such similarities between certain markets, with Europe/Asia being a prime example.
Thanks for everyone's input!
