It has over 4,000 locations in 43 states, and Washington, DC, with more than 2.6 million units and over 283.4 million square feet of net rentable space. So, why am I bearish on EXR at current levels? Extra Space Storage experienced a 6.0% year-on-year rise in operating expenses in its latest quarter, while revenues rose only 1.7%.

Valuations remain high, and EXR also faces regulatory scrutiny over predatory pricing at 60 locations in New York.
