VanWest Partners Allocates $23 Million to Expand Self-Storage Portfolio Across Three States

VanWest Partners, a Denver-based real estate investment firm, has broadened its self-storage footprint with the acquisition of three facilities located in Nevada, Arkansas, and Georgia. These latest purchases bring the company’s portfolio to 40 properties, encompassing over 20,000 units and 3.2 million net rentable square feet (NRSF).

Overview of Recent Acquisitions

Springdale, Arkansas – ClearHome Self Storage

• Located in the Fayetteville-Springdale-Rogers metropolitan area, this facility offers a combination of drive-up, non-climate-controlled, and interior climate-controlled units. Built in 2007 and expanded in 2018, the property serves an underserved market with no direct competitors within a 1.5-mile radius.

Las Vegas, Nevada – ClearHome Self Storage

• Size: 314 units, 36,400 NRSF

All three facilities are managed by ClearHome Self Storage, VanWest’s in-house management platform. ClearHome focuses on enhancing operational efficiency by improving occupancy rates, streamlining operating costs, and simplifying the leasing process for local customers.

Jacob Vanderslice, Co-Founder and Principal at VanWest Partners, stated, “Each of these submarkets offers strong demographic trends and robust consumer demand for self-storage, which we believe will support long-term performance. We’re eager to see how these assets perform under our optimized management framework.”

In 2024, VanWest Partners has deployed approximately $32 million in total capitalization. Despite a slowdown in transaction volumes in recent years, the company anticipates increased acquisition activity in 2025. “The market conditions are evolving, and we look forward to identifying new opportunities for our investors in the coming year,” added Vanderslice.

VanWest continues to offer value-add self-storage investment opportunities to accredited investors.
