Where do you sit?
Two sides.
One specialization.
I own a facility
I help owners understand value, prepare the property for market and identify the right buyer strategy, whether the sale is broadly marketed or handled through a more targeted process.
- Valuation and pricing strategy
- Market preparation and positioning
- Buyer outreach and transaction strategy
I want to buy
I help investors and operators identify and evaluate self-storage opportunities across Ontario and look at the operation behind the real estate.
- NOI, rents, occupancy and expenses
- Expansion potential and risk
- Public and confidential opportunities
Why work with Duke
I know the operation
behind the real estate.
I’ve owned self-storage facilities, dealt with tenants, reviewed rents, managed expenses and made the same investment decisions many owners and buyers are making today.
That experience changes how I look at a facility. I want to understand what the rent roll is really telling us, where the upside may be, what the expenses look like and where the operational risk sits.

What I look at
before the
asking price.
The same review applies whether you are selling a facility or underwriting one. The numbers have to tell a consistent story.
- Rent Roll
- Occupancy
- Unit Mix
- Market Rents
- Operating Expenses
- NOI
- Competition
- Expansion Potential
- Capital Requirements
- Buyer Underwriting
Let’s talk about
your facility.
