Headquartered in Chicago, The BSC Group delivers Self Storage & Commercial Real Estate financing solutions to clients nationwide. We recognized when forming our company in 2009 that Self Storage property owners and investors required more than simply loan products when turning to us for support. They sought answers, they wanted advice, and they needed a wide array of solutions to help them optimize professional and personal financial goals.

With advisory solutions as our core, we built The BSC Group to go beyond traditional loan origination services. We provide access to debt and equity financing for commercial real estate investments nationwide, but we also deliver advisory expertise that includes helping clients establish realistic expectations of what the market can deliver, counsel on leveraging current self storage portfolio investments, and recommendations for financing packages that meet specific capital requirements. Think of us as your outsourced real estate investment banking team.

This level of solutions provision requires extensive capital markets experience. BSC Group team members are Self Storage & Commercial Real Estate finance veterans with proven track records of meeting – and exceeding – client expectations.

At the BSC Group, we understand that every property presents different challenges, every client brings with them a unique situation, and that the financial markets are always changing. That's why we approach every deal with a fresh eye, making sure we provide the best solution every time.

Self Storage Loan Approaches

“Static” is a word we’d never associate with Self Storage or Commercial Real Estate financing. The capital markets are constantly changing; and in today’s volatile environment, they’re moving at warp speed.

The BSC Group service approach takes root from our belief that national Self Storage Owner/Operators and Commercial Real Estate clients deserve better than static thinking. Which is why we developed five guiding principles for approaching every client engagement:

1. Every commercial & self storage property owner has specialized financing requirements
2. There are no such things as off-the-shelf lending and advisory solutions
3. Every transaction is unique
4. Clients cannot be over-serviced
5. Clients deserve start-to-finish support

While we’re oftentimes in the business of negotiating financing arrangements for clients, these five principles are non-negotiable within our corporate structure. They are set in stone and reviewed daily in relation to each client assignment. No compromises, no shortcuts, no excuses.

Furthermore, we are in the markets, daily staying abreast of constantly evolving conditions. As a result, BSC Group solutions and advice are guided by fresh, entrepreneurial thinking, not stale ideas from bygone eras.
