Balcomie is a boutique firm that specializes in private investment opportunities that offer tax advantages and a predictable revenue stream

January 31, 2023: Balcomie Capital, a private investment group, has launched a $10 million equity fund that’ll pursue value-add acquisitions and ground-up developments within the self-storage industry. The fund seeks about 40 accredited, high-net-worth investors. Though it has a 12-month investment window, the company expects to close the fund within five months.

“In an inflationary environment, on the edge of a recession, self-storage offers a historically high return with a proven, recession-resistant asset class,” said founder Travis Baucom. “This investment is one of the lowest risk options in the market today.”

The fund is targeting a 20% internal rate of return and to double individual investments in five years, the release stated.

Based in Waco, Texas, Baucom has more than 10 years of real estate investing experience, according to the release.
