Just Closed | Chief Storage | Belton, MO (Kansas City MSA)

EquiCap Commercial is pleased to announce the successful sale of Chief Storage, a newly constructed contractor-focused storage facility located at 1901 173rd St in Belton, Missouri, within the Kansas City MSA.

The sellers said, “Marla Čolić and Alex Erbs provided exceptional and professional services for the sale of our storage facility. From start to finish they went to bat for us finding the perfect buyer for our facility. They handled the transaction with poise and worked for us every step of the way. I would highly recommend them to anyone who wants a no-nonsense broker who will close their deal and see it through to completion.”

Opened in July 2025, Chief Storage consists of 85 non-climate-controlled contractor storage units totaling approximately 59,410 net rentable square feet across 6.72 acres. Designed and constructed to institutional-grade standards, the facility features premium architectural finishes, advanced security systems, LED lighting, gated access, WiFi, and numerous tenant-focused amenities tailored to contractors, small businesses, RV owners, and recreational users.

The asset attracted significant investor interest due to its unique positioning within an underserved market for large-format contractor storage units. Strong early leasing momentum, limited direct competition, and an approved expansion plan adding an additional 39,640 net rentable square feet created a compelling investment opportunity for buyers seeking both immediate cash flow growth and long-term value creation.

Alex Erbs, Director, EquiCap Commercial is thrilled to be a speaker for The Storage Group's educational webinar series "The MEGAbyte - Peak Season Readiness: How To Capture More Rentals Without Breaking Your Operations." Alex will be joined by several other industry peers to discuss this topic tomorrow, Thursday May 21st at 2pm EST. https://hubs.ly/Q04gHrt80

Peak season is make-or-break for self storage operators, but more demand doesn’t automatically mean more revenue. If your team is overwhelmed, your systems are slow, or leads aren’t handled fast enough, you could be leaving money on the table during the busiest time of the year. In this webinar, we’ll break down how to prepare your facility, team, and processes so you can capture more rentals without sacrificing service or burning out your staff. In this session you’ll learn: Where operators lose the most rentals during peak season (and how to fix it) How to streamline operations to handle higher demand efficiently Proven ways to improve lead response and conversion when volume spikes Simple adjustments to your website and rental flow that can increase bookings How to align pricing, availability, and staffing for maximum revenue.

Whether you’re running a single facility or managing multiple locations, this session will give you practical, actionable strategies to help you stay in control and ahead of your competition when it matters most. Don't let peak season overwhelm your operation. It's time to turn demand into revenue.
