Stack-It Storage Announces Proposed Acquisition Of Lake Houston Self-Storage Facility
HOUSTON, Aug. 31, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Stack-It Storage, Inc. (OTCQB: STAK) announces that it has entered into a contract for the acquisition of the Company's initial operating facility in the self-storage business. In this transaction, the Company expects to acquire from a private company a fully operational self-storage facility with approximately 22,000 net rentable square feet located in Huffman, Texas, for a purchase price of $1,500,000. The Company expects to complete the acquisition by October 15, 2015, subject to its due diligence review and obtaining satisfactory financing.
The facility to be acquired is located in close proximity to Lake Houston, a major water reservoir and aquatic recreational area, and presently consists of 202 non-climate controlled self-storage units situated on approximately 2.57 acres of land. It was originally constructed in stages from 1996 to 2004 and current occupancy of the self-storage units is approximately 94%. Within the existing land tract, Stack-It believes that there is sufficient capacity to substantially expand the facility and the Company is currently investigating the feasibility of constructing up to 20,000 square feet of additional climate controlled storage space.
Commenting on the proposed acquisition, Steven Mikel, President & CEO of Stack-It, stated, "We are delighted to be making our initial acquisition in the self-storage business at Lake Houston. It is well suited to meet our criteria of solid current operations and potential for future development. Once we complete and integrate the Lake Houston acquisition, we plan to continue our growth strategy that is expected to result in the acquisition of multiple self-storage facilities in the coming months and years."
