Self-Storage Firm SkyView Advisors Launches ‘Special Assets Group’

SkyView Advisors, a Tampa, Fla.-based investment-sales and advisory firm focused on the self-storage industry, has launched a “Special Assets Group” that will advise investors, lenders, servicers and debt funds in the disposition of troubled real estate. The group will be led by Ryan Clark, director of investment sales, according to a press release.

“SkyView Advisors is constantly striving to increase value for others in the industry through our innovation and service,” officials said. “As a firm, we’re looking to leverage our strong track record of successfully executing loan sales (performing, non-performing and sub-performing), REO [real estate owned], and deed in lieu of foreclosure transactions.”

Clark has served as the company’s director of investment sales since 2017. He previously held the role of senior vice president in the firm’s investment-sales group. Prior to joining SkyView, he was an attorney in Ohio, where he represented insurance companies, real estate developers, commercial landlords and construction companies in litigation and transactional matters.

SkyView is a boutique firm specializing in self-storage acquisition, development, facility expansion and renovation, refinancing, and sales. It’s completed more than $1.9 billion in self-storage transactions across the nation. Based in Tampa, Fla., the firm also has an office in Akron, Ohio.
