Marcus & Millichap Accelerate Executive RV and Boat Storage Market
he LeClaire-Schlosser Group of Marcus & Millichap successfully brokered the sale of the sought-after Hidden Island RV & Boat Storage in Fort Collins, Colo. The Colorado storage market continues to show strength.
The LeClaire-Schlosser group, an enclave of Marcus & Millichap (NYSE: MMI), a renowned commercial real estate investment services firm, has recently announced a flourishing transaction. The property sold, as reported on Toy Storage Nation is Hidden Island RV & Boat Storage, an RV and boat storage facility capable of holding 180 units, located in Fort Collins, Colo.
Thomas Parsons and Adam Schlosser, well-known storage investment specialists at Marcus & Millichap's Denver office, exclusively handled the listing. The seller was a private, local owner, indicating the strength of independent businesses in the area. As Parsons explained, "RV storage facilities continue to be a sought-after asset class, and we had strong buyer interest from in-state and out-of-state groups."
Notably, the buyer is an affiliate of Ivywild Capital, a boutique private equity firm focused on storage investments, adding to the firm's growing portfolio within the storage industry.
Hidden Island RV & Boat Storage consists of 32 interior parking units in a single-story building, each complete with individual garage-style doors. Complementing this, the remaining 148 open parking units sit on a gravel surface. Equipped with a perimeter chain-link fence, an electronic gate with keypad access, and security cameras, the 3955 South Taft Hill Road in Fort Collins stands as a sterling example of well-managed storage real estate.
