"Loose Cannons" on the Deck We just got back from the SSA show in Atlanta and found that the crowd was generally of two minds. The first expressed the optimism of newly minted self storage enthusiasts. The second view was one of the more cautious, weathered owners. The low interest rates and the lack of other good real estate investments have made the newcomers very interested in our small slice of the real estate world. However, many others with more experience were beginning to wonder about such things as why rental rates were not going up as fast; why the winter slump in occupancies is hanging on; why the Yellow Pages weren’t working as well. While these curiosities weren’t universal among the participants, the issue of interest rates was on everyone’s mind, experienced owner or novice investor. Clearly, this was the issue of the day. Of course, the direction of interest rates raised many questions such as: Will they go up? If so, how fast? Will rising interest rates lower valuations for self storage? Will financing be readily available? If so, will building slow down? Obviously,
each of the questions suggests an answer depending on your perspective.
However, what struck me about his convention was the number and
importance of Michael L. McCune,

Treasuries. C'mon. Give us a break already!! Arcadia Capital tells us that is was another horrible week with new economic data pushing the seemingly super-volatile treasury markets over the top closing up, yet again. The LIBOR and trailing indices remain even providing some sort of relief, especially for those in adjustable programs. Rates keep on creeping up, but there are still tons of good deals out there to be had. Longer-term fixed for the refi crowd is slowing down a bit and shorter-term fixed and adjustables for the purchase crowd remain popular.
