By many accounts, industrial outdoor storage is now having its own moment. As you’ll read in this month’s cover story, the once-niche asset class is now among the fastest-growing in terms of its appeal to institutional capital and larger-scale users. New Jersey is no exception, with a buyer pool that seems to grow more crowded and more competitive by the month, and it stands to continue in a region that is well-positioned to serve not only trucking companies — long synonymous with low-coverage sites — but an evolving tenant base that includes contractors, building material suppliers, auto dealers and other users with large fleets and storage needs. The state’s local, established landlords have also remained active, securing new sites through a mix of creativity and a willingness to explore lesser-known submarkets.
