Rockford, IL

The subject property, Elm Storage, is a lease-up opportunity, offering investors a compelling value-add opportunity through op­erational and revenue optimization. The asset is currently operating below its full potential, with occupancy levels and achieved rental rates significantly under market benchmarks, creating a clear path to drive revenue through lease-up and the implementa­tion of professional management practices. The property features a functional unit mix designed to accommodate a wide range of tenant needs, along with additional ancillary income streams including tenant insurance, retail sales, U-Haul, and administrative fees. With in-place rents below comparable properties and an expense structure that can be streamlined, investors are well-posi­tioned to materially increase net operating income and overall asset value through a focused repositioning strategy.
