National Storage Affiliates Trust
A self-storage real estate investment trust that owns and runs thousands of storage units for everyday people and small businesses under local brand names like SecurCare and iStorage. It came together in 2013 when three regional storage operators — SecurCare, Northwest Self Storage, and Optivest — merged to share public money and buying power while still managing their own neighborhoods. The name "Affiliates" reflects its unusual structure, where these partner companies stay independent and keep their local branding under one national umbrella.
