Long-term rebound in demand seen unlikely as new-construction decline continues<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., May 20, 2026<\/strong>\u00a0\u2013\u00a0The modest increase in new self storage development activity at the end of 2025 led\u00a0Yardi\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0Matrix<\/a>\u00a0to increase its new supply forecast for 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Current construction completion times suggest that most of the 54 million net rentable square feet, or NRSF, of inventory at the end of last year will complete in 2026. The supply forecast estimates that new supply in 2027 will total about 45 million NRSF, with 38.62 NRSF coming in 2028.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With Q1 2026 construction starts 29% below the pace recorded a year ago, \u201c2025\u2019s decline in new construction is continuing into 2026,\u201d showing \u201cfew signs that a near-term rebound in self storage demand will take hold\u201d this year, according to a new Self Storage Supply Forecast Update from Yardi Matrix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Advertised rental rates remain under pressure and long-term interest and mortgage rates remain elevated. This suppresses transactions, new development and single family home sales, a key self storage demand driver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The revised estimate also accounts for the 30 new markets that Yardi Matrix has added to its coverage since July 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
