Always curious and focused on great care, Wayde took an interest in his patients, including one who had tremendous entrepreneurial insight to share about his experiences with self-storage facilities.<\/p>\n<p>Wayde says, \u201cI was intrigued and without a solid \u2018Plan B\u2019 after the injury, I decided to pursue my curiosity. I was fortunate to work on a self-storage project developed in St. Helens, Oregon. I learned so much and, as an entrepreneur, I could see that the return on investment could be incredible. I knew then that self-storage development was the field that I\u2019d pursue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>StoreIT\u2019s first location opened in 2009 and as Wayde and his team gained experience in facility development, StoreIT offered its services to help others develop their own facilities, too. Moving forward, StoreIT is realigning its business goals to focus on developing its own locations.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Securing SBA 504 loans for growth<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-24246\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DJI_0635-1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"StoreIT Facility financed with SBA 504 Program\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DJI_0635-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DJI_0635-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DJI_0635-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DJI_0635-1-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DJI_0635-1-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DJI_0635-1-18x12.jpg 18w, https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DJI_0635-1-270x180.jpg 270w, https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DJI_0635-1-975x650.jpg 975w, https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/DJI_0635-1.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>For commercial real estate development projects for self-storage facilities, the down payment for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/es\/business-financing\/why-sba-504\/\">Pr\u00e9stamo SBA 504<\/a> is just 10%. This makes projects more feasible than the 30-40% or more required for conventional commercial mortgages. The loans also include a fixed competitive interest rate for the life of the loan and a 25-year repayment term, so monthly payments are predictable and, often, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/es\/lease-vs-own-building\/\">less than the cost of leasing<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>StoreIT\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/storeit.com\/projects\/porterville-storage\/\">first project<\/a> with TMC and Live Oak was a storage-facility purchase in Porterville, CA. The <a href=\"https:\/\/storeit.com\/projects\/woodburn-storage\/\">second project<\/a>, in Woodburn, OR, was ground-up development that included purchase of a 12.5-acre parcel and construction of 795 units, including covered spaces for RVs and boats.<\/p>\n<p>Wayde says, \u201cThe SBA 504 loan program is exceptional for self-storage facilities. Real estate development is capital intensive and the SBA 504 gives you the option to scale more efficiently and effectively. The low down-payment and 25-year term mean that you can keep more capital on-hand to invest further in your business and grow.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tmcfinancing.com\/es\/contact\/\">TMC Business Development Officer, Jim Azevedo<\/a> worked with Wayde and the StoreIT team on both projects.

He\u2019s super-knowledgeable, just a wealth of information, and knowing that TMC was available to help at every point was huge.

Among the abandoned locations we\u2019ve converted to self-storage are a lumberyard, a hazelnut-processing facility, and a newspaper facility.
