Description: CUBE CubeSmart January 03, 2026
CubeSmart (NYSE:CUBE) operates as a self-administered, self-managed REIT focused on affordable, readily accessible self-storage facilities, many of which are climate-controlled, serving both residential and commercial tenants. The 2025 Self-Storage Almanac ranks it among the top three owners and operators of self-storage assets in the United States.
Key operational metrics that investors watch include an occupancy rate that hovered around 95% in Q4 2023 and a same-store net operating income (NOI) growth of roughly 4% year-over-year, reflecting resilient demand despite modest macro-economic headwinds. The sector benefits from structural drivers such as continued e-commerce expansion, which fuels inventory overflow needs, and a relatively low cost-of-capital environment that supports REIT financing; however, rising interest rates could pressure dividend yields and acquisition capacity.
