Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions:

On February 8, 2016, a subsidiary of Strategic Storage Growth Trust, Inc. (the “Registrant”) executed a purchase and sale agreement with an unaffiliated third party (the “Pembroke Pines Purchase Agreement”) for the acquisition of a self storage facility to be located in Pembroke Pines, Florida (the “Pembroke Pines Property”). The information in this Item 1.01 description is qualified in its entirety by the full Pembroke Pines Purchase Agreement which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.

The Pembroke Pines Property currently consists of a 3.0 acre tract of land that will be developed by the seller into a self storage facility located in Pembroke Pines, Florida. The self storage property is expected to contain approximately 84,750 net rentable square feet and approximately 879 rental units. The purchase price for the Pembroke Pines Property is approximately $15.7 million, plus closing costs and acquisition fees. The Registrant expects the acquisition of the Pembroke Pines Property to close in the fourth quarter of 2016 or the first quarter of 2017 after construction is complete on the self storage facility and a certificate of occupancy has been issued for the Pembroke Pines Property. The Registrant expects to fund such acquisition with a combination of net proceeds from the Registrant’s initial public offering and through a drawdown on future credit facilities.

Pursuant to the Pembroke Pines Purchase Agreement, the Registrant will be obligated to purchase the Pembroke Pines Property only after satisfactory completion of agreed upon closing conditions. The Registrant will decide whether to acquire the Pembroke Pines Property generally based upon:

There can be no assurance that the Registrant will complete the acquisition of the Pembroke Pines Property. In some circumstances, if the Registrant fails to complete the acquisition, it may forfeit up to approximately $750,000 in earnest money on the Pembroke Pines Property.

Other properties may be identified in the future that the Registrant may acquire prior to or instead of the Pembroke Pines Property. Due to the considerable conditions to the consummation of the acquisition of the Pembroke Pines Property, the Registrant cannot make any assurances that the closing of the Pembroke Pines Property is probable.
