10 Federal buys in SC

10 Federal has acquired the Ft Mill Biz Center self storage facility located at 1691-A Katy Lane, Fort Mill, South Carolina. 

This acquisition marks the 8th self storage facility acquired by the 10 Federal Self Storage Acquisition Company 1, LLC.

Pennsylvania passes tenant insurance law

Self storage owners and their employees and company representatives can now get a limited license authorizing them to sell tenant insurance in the state of Pennsylvania. House Bill 504 was signed into law in October by Gov. Tom Wolf establishing the provision. The law goes into effect on Dec. 24.

A self storage owner only needs one license to sell insurance in the state, though the application must include a list of all facilities operated. The business must also notify the insurance commissioner within 30 days of any new Pennsylvania locations or facility closures. The law requires that storage owners maintain a registry of employees who have been certified to sell insurance and are eligible to act as agents.

The bill was supported by the Pennsylvania Self Storage Association (PASSA) and national Self Storage Association (SSA). SSA officials credited PASSA president and SSA board member Alyssa Quill and former PASSA board member Mike Rhoads as being “instrumental in securing passage of the bill,” in an Oct. 29 newsletter to association members.
