Patron Sponsor for the SSA
Published: Monday, January 28, 2008

The Sperry Van Ness National Self Storage Team, an elite group of investment brokers specializing in the marketing, sale, disposition and acquisition of self storage assets throughout the U.S., is pleased to announce its first Patron Sponsorship for 2008 with the Self Storage Association (SSA), the only national U.S. not-for-profit organization serving the self storage industry...
With Sperry Van Ness totaling more than $11 billion in sales transactions for 2007, and with a growing nationwide team of experts lead by National Director of Self Storage, Nicholas J. Malagisi, the team concurred that signing on as an SSA Patron Sponsor was necessary in order to continue expanding the Sperry Van Ness name and to support the SSA on marketing, membership, and promotional events such as the national trade shows.
"After being involved in many aspects of the self storage industry for over 25 years, supporting the SSA as a key sponsor is something I’ve always envisioned we’d accomplish," says Malagisi. "Forming the National Self Storage Team almost three years ago now gives us the resources and leverage to service our clients from San Francisco to New York City and beyond with our 15 plus nationwide self storage investment specialists and international resources."
In the last two years, Sperry Van Ness has closed over $178 million in self storage transactions. This does not include transactions prior to the formation of the team (approximately $350 million). Current inventory has expanded from $60 million in inventory in 2006 to $140 million in 2008.
"The second half of 2007 was a challenging time period to keep deals together with the capital market situation," says Malagisi. "However, we have successfully resigned contracts and will now close in the first quarter of 2008."
