Once considered the “ugly duckling” of commercial real estate, Industrial Outdoor Storage (IOS) has become the newest booming asset class now valued at $200 billion. IOS properties, characterized by low building-to-land coverage ratios (usually less than 20%), can be used to store vehicles, equipment, and shipping containers. Thanks to strict zoning regulations that prevent new development and the boom in imports and e-commerce, IOS properties are able to fetch up to $6,500 per acre a month in rent for inland areas such as Dallas and up to $60,000 per acre along coastal areas like Los Angeles (D Magazine). Furthermore, the adoption of port and railyard fees aimed at reducing the time shipping containers can dwell on site is adding fuel to IOS demand. IOS landlords may have been overlooked in the past, but their properties are quickly becoming one of the most sought-after in the industrial market.
