    Self Storage Development With Ben Salzberg & Bill Kanatas

    Bill Kanatas and Ben Salzberg, are experienced real estate developers, specializing in Class A facilities, often involving the repositioning of closed, dark spaces or ground-up construction. Their strategy is primarily that of a merchant builder, aiming to develop and sell these properties within a three to five-year window after stabilization. They highlighted the importance of community engagement and building trust with municipalities during the entitlement process, especially when addressing concerns about new developments. A key to their success in the Chicago area, despite its high property taxes, has been securing tax incentives, such as the 7B designation, and developing in TIF districts, which showcases their expertise in navigating complex local regulations.
