About Omni Asset Management

Founded by industry veterans Amy Jenkins and Kathryn East, Omni Asset Management is a full-cycle real estate investment and operations firm specializing in self storage. With over 30 years of combined experience across ownership, operations, underwriting, and acquisitions, the company empowers self storage investors to maximize returns through data-driven strategy and operational excellence.

Omni provides end-to-end support—from site acquisition and underwriting to staffing, training, and operational optimization. Backed by deep industry knowledge and a leadership team with decades of hands-on experience, Omni challenges traditional approaches to self storage by integrating modern technologies and custom operational systems tailored to each facility.

Headquartered in Tennessee and serving clients across the United States, Omni is driven by a commitment to client success. The company fosters long-term partnerships with owners, team members, and investors, and is recognized as a trusted resource for self storage professionals looking to scale efficiently and profitably in a competitive market.

The Challenge

As experienced self-storage advisors, Kathryn and Amy knew the underwriting process was overdue for an upgrade. Traditional methods using spreadsheets and pen-and-paper tools created significant bottlenecks, especially when:

  • Data had to be manually entered from offering memorandums
  • Each bank had unique data requirements
  • Delivering valuations for 30+ properties per week became unmanageable
"Getting the data in there fast enough was always the hardest part. LOIs can’t wait weeks. They have to go out now. Cactus empowers that type of speed."

The Solution

After testing other platforms like Argus and Rockport VAL, Omni chose Cactus for its speed, AI capabilities, and collaborative product feedback loop. "The Cactus team actually listens to us," said Amy. "Every time we had feedback, it was either already in beta or actively being improved. "Their favorite features:

  1. AI Document Reader: Upload OMs, spreadsheets, or PDFs—Cactus reads and pre-fills everything.
  2. Investment Criteria Checks: Input target IRRs and cash-on-cash returns—Cactus instantly confirms alignment.
  3. Operational Planning: Year-by-year expense planning that meets lender expectations.
 "The customer support is the best we've ever experienced. We’ve never waited more than a day for an answer. And they don’t just respond—they teach. The support team genuinely cares about our success. It shows."

Impact

Kathryn went from working 12-hour days on valuations to just 7 hours per week, including client meetings. Amy emphasized how even junior clients can now underwrite deals thanks to Cactus’ intuitive interface.

"We can walk a new client through it once, and they immediately get it. It's been a game changer."
