Union Realtime
Union Realtime is the company behind Radius+, a self-storage market intelligence platform built for operators, investors, developers, lenders, brokers and analysts. The platform covers supply and saturation, unit-level pricing updated daily, development pipeline activity, CBSA-level market performance, competitive positioning, demographic and economic trends, and site selection and feasibility inputs.
The product line splits by workflow. Radius+ is the core location intelligence tool. Advocate is a macro analytics platform with supply and saturation dashboards. Insider adds a Chrome extension that shows competitive pricing in a five mile trade area from any web-based property management software, plus video market updates and Slack alerts on new listings and projects. Compass Report is an on-demand feasibility report, and Radius+ Relay pulls platform data into Excel.
Radius+ Listings lets brokers post existing facilities, land and conversion opportunities at no cost, with syndication from Buildout in a few clicks, broker chat, and auction-style promotion. Advocate aggregates data from 18,000+ facilities with over 100,000 data points processed per day, and Insider tracks installed base, supply growth and development activity across over 900 markets. The company also publishes market commentary and an annual report.
Sign-up is self-serve with no commitment, while enterprise access with unlimited use and the full reporting suite is arranged by phone or chat. Confirm coverage and refresh frequency for the specific markets you underwrite before subscribing.
Best for
Self-storage developers, investors and operators who need daily unit-level pricing, supply and pipeline data for underwriting and site selection. It covers only self-storage, and a single-facility owner will likely not need the enterprise tier.

Common questions
- What is self-storage market intelligence software?
- It is a data platform that brings facility data, rental rates, supply growth, pipeline activity, occupancy trends, demographics and CBSA-level market comparisons into one place, so a market can be evaluated without manual research, scattered spreadsheets or outdated assumptions.
- How does Radius+ support underwriting a facility?
- Underwriting a self-storage facility means evaluating both the property and the market around it: current rents, occupancy, unit mix, competitor pricing, nearby supply, the development pipeline, square feet per capita, household growth and lease-up assumptions. Radius+ supplies the market-level and facility-level data used to validate those assumptions.
