Welcome back everybody to the Self Storage Income podcast! Thanks so much for tuning in and for all of your incredible support. The podcast is growing, our book is doing amazing, and all the feedback we continue to receive has been outstanding. That said - let’s get to it! Today I wanted to give you all an in depth introduction to the self storage industry. Whether we’re just starting out or we’re veteran storage investors, keeping our hands on the pulse of the storage industry is key to our continued success. Throughout today’s episode we’re going to cover a variety of subjects that will give you some good insight into the storage industry and where not only the pitfalls may be, but where the massive opportunities can be. From the total number of storage facilities in the US and their combined rentable space, to the primary reason storage exists, to storage performance year over year and even through specific seasons, we get into a lot here today. As usual, I’m excited to share it with you all to help give you the information you need to make informed decisions. Enjoy guys and we’ll see you next time!
