DENVER, April 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- VanWest Partners, an opportunistic investment firm specializing in commercial real estate acquisition, management, and sales, announces the acquisition of 5 self storage facilities to its newest fund, VanWest Self Storage Fund II, LLC.  Year to date, the firm has closed on a total of 7 self storage facilities representing just under $30mm in total capitalization.

The 5-property Michigan portfolio was closed in mid-March and includes 2 self storage facilities in the greater Detroit market and 3 self storage facilities in the Grand Rapids market.  The portfolio totals just over 265,000 net rental square feet and 1,628 units including 232 boat and RV parking spaces.

VanWest plans to rebrand the 5 facilities under its ClearHome Self Storage management platform.

With the addition of the Michigan portfolio, VanWest now owns and operates self storage facilities in 8 states and 12 metro areas nationwide.
