The JLL Capital Markets team was led by Managing Director Steve Mellon and Managing Director Brian Somoza along with Senior Associate Henry Weiler and Vice President Andrew Fischer.  

“These two self-storage properties are in small municipalities with a tightly controlled development approval process for new self-storage development, which means there will be limited competition entering the market,” Steve Mellon said. “The properties are institutional-quality assets in locations near several major traffic draws.”
