Kiwi II Construction sells to Janus International in the first huge Storage transaction of 2026.

Self-storage is entering a new era, and so is this podcast. In this episode, I break down the $97.5 million acquisition of Kiwi II by Janus International and what it means for the future of steel pricing and construction . We also go one-on-one with Noah Springer, the new President of Extra Space, to discuss their aggressive ECRI policies and why market saturation is forcing a "rate-cutting" hand in certain MSAs . We also cover: -The REIT Stock Surge: Why 2026 has started with a 12-17% rally for major storage stocks . -Macro Tensions: The ongoing battle between the White House and the Fed, and why investor sentiment on the 10-year Treasury is currently "shaky" . -AI & The Entrepreneur: Kusiima Boswell (Terrakotta) shares how he integrates his faith into building a game-changing AI dialer for the real estate space . -The Rebrand: I announce the transition of the show to its new name: STORAGE UNLOCKED.
