Self storage markets showed modest national growth in asking rents, posting a 1.0% year-over-year increase in October 2025. The picture is far from uniform, however, as more than one in three tracked cities actually recorded annual rent declines, and price swings reached well into the double digits in both directions depending on local dynamics.<\/p>\n
