Marcus & Millichap Arranges Sale of A-Alpha Self Storage in Denison, Texas
May 08, 2026
DENISON, Texas, May 8, 2026 – Marcus & Millichap (NYSE: MMI), a leading commercial real estate brokerage firm specializing in investment sales, financing, research and advisory services, announced today the sale of A-Alpha Self-Storage, a 41,959 rentable-square-foot storage facility resting on approximately 4.16 acres in Denison, Texas.
“After we thoroughly marketed the facility to a wide range of investors, our clients decided to sell the facility, which they inherited from their father, the original developer, to a DFW-based buyer with a strong track record of acquiring and repositioning storage assets throughout the region,” said Danny Cunningham, senior managing director investments. “The buyer encountered some financing-related challenges during the escrow period, but after putting a substantial amount of earnest money at risk, we worked diligently with him to secure the bridge debt that ultimately propelled the deal across the finish line above the contract price.”
Cunningham and Brandon Karr, investment specialists in Marcus & Millichap’s Fort Worth office, had the exclusive listing to market the property on behalf of the sellers and procured the buyer, an active Dallas-Fort Worth-based self-storage operator.
A-Alpha Self Storage at 2216 Woodlawn Blvd. was built in stages between 1996 and 2008. The facility contains 306 non-climate drive up units, five semi-permanent shipping containers, and one office space. The facility is also highly visible from Woodlawn Boulevard, one of the town’s most highly trafficked roads, upon which approximately 10,000 vehicles travel each day. Located approximately 35 minutes from north Dallas, the Sherman / Denison Metropolitan Statistical Area is experiencing monumental growth from both an economic and population perspective.
