VOC Partners, LLC, a real estate investment firm specializing in data-driven self-storage projects, today announced the official launch of its Self-Storage Investment Platform (SIP) – an institutional framework designed to acquire, develop, and operate high-performing self-storage assets across the Mid-Atlantic region. The firm also introduced its initial SIP Portfolio, representing the first group of assets advancing under this platform.
Built in partnership with Budget Store & Lock, Pennsylvania’s largest locally owned operator and a Top-50 U.S. self-storage brand, VOC’s SIP integrates decades of operating experience with institutional discipline, advanced analytics, and localized market intelligence.

tors with local experience that truly understands each market.”
