We are a self-storage pure-play, and our portfolio includes over 1,900 locations and counting. Storage is a need-based product and years of customer data shows us that people from every walk of life and in every demographic have use for self-storage.
Our platform is the result of constant innovation. We are continually challenging ourselves to drive more traffic, at a lower cost, with better rental conversion while providing an ever-improving customer experience.
Our people rose to the challenges of 2020, and with adaptability and resilience they continued to help our customers to a better tomorrow. We have always said our people and culture are a key differentiator for Extra Space, and this proved true again this past year.
Despite the headwinds of 2020, Extra Space delivered another year of strong Core-FFO growth. We continue to strengthen our balance sheet and reduce our cost of capital. As a result of these efforts, our stock continues to be one of the highest returning in the REIT sector.
We continue to find innovative ways to invest capital in the self-storage sector at appropriate risk adjusted returns. In addition to our traditional acquisitions and third-party management platforms, we continue to grow our structured finance business, with over $600 million invested in 2020.
