• The GTA would be the 6th largest MSA in the U.S. and, of those markets, the
fastest growing market supported by strong economic and demographic
fundamentals
High barriers to entry limit development, including zoning restrictions that prohibit
new construction
Heavy concentration of non-institutional operators in the GTA self storage market
allows for a relatively lower level of operating competition
