Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets

         Sovran  Self  Storage,   Inc.,  (the  "Company")  has  consummated  the
acquisition of 20 self-storage  facilities  through Sovran  Acquisition  Limited
Partnership,  L.P. ("OP"), a limited partnership  controlled by the Company. The
20 facilities totaling approximately 988,000 square feet are located in 8 states
and were purchased for approximately $37 million.

All of the facilities were acquired with cash from  unaffiliated  third parties.
The  acquisitions  were funded by cash generated from  operations and borrowings
under the Company's lines of credit. Each of the facilities acquired was used by
the seller as a self-storage  facility prior to its  acquisition by the Company,
and the Company  intends to continue the use of all facilities for that purpose.
The Company's  management  determined  the contract  price  through  arms-length
negotiations,  after  taking  into  consideration  such  factors as: the age and
condition  of  the  facility;   the  projected  amounts  of  maintenance  costs;
anticipated capital  improvements;  the facility's current revenues;  comparable
facilities  competing  in  the  applicable  market;   market  rental  rates  for
comparable  facilities;  the occupancy  rate of the facility;  and the estimated
amount of taxes, utility costs, personnel costs, and other anticipated expenses.

The  following  provides  certain  additional   information  concerning  the  20
facilities acquired:
