| COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | 15. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Development Commitments The Company has agreements with developers for the construction of two new self-storage properties (see note 4), which will require payments of approximately $10.0 million, due in installments upon completion of certain construction milestones, during 2025. Litigation From time to time, the Company is involved in claims which arise in the ordinary course of business. In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, management establishes an accrued liability for claim expenses, insurance retention and litigation costs when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and reasonably estimable. In such cases, there may be exposure to loss in excess of those amounts accrued. The estimated loss, if any, is based upon currently available information and is subject to significant judgment, a variety of assumptions, and known and unknown uncertainties. In the opinion of management, the Company has made adequate provisions for potential liabilities arising from any such matters, which are included in Accounts payable, accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. |
