Summary
Hey what’s going on everybody!? Welcome back to the Self Storage Income Podcast, this is your host AJ Osborne. One of the things that’s often talked about throughout the world of real estate investing is the raising of capital for deals. Everybody talks about how to find investors, how to manage investors, how to raise money, and even a bit about how to allocate that money. One of the issues with this is…. No one ever talks about what the actual deals look like AFTER the investors are secured and money is raised. What does the deal structure look like? Is there a industry standard for percentages of ownership in the deal? Who gets what and how much? Well that’s exactly what we’re going to cover in today’s episode. We go behind the veil and share with you guys the exact structure of our past and current deals. We go over the different roles that we and our investors take in in the deal, what that means, and the exact percentages shared of those deals. We talk general partners, limited partners, the rough number of investors we generally like to take on, and more. I’m super excited to share this episode out with you guys because we cover a ton of great topics and help walk you through what a potential deal could like in regard to the deal structure behind the scenes. Enjoy, take notes, and as always, get out there and get after it. Thanks for listening everybody, AJ Be sure to go to Selfstorageincome.com to get your free copy of my Self Storage Playbook.

| 1:05.1 | We cover obviously a lot of things on this podcast and get excited a lot about operations finding deals. |
| 1:14.3 | One of the things, though, I don't think we've really dived into on the podcast yet is constructing |
| 1:19.7 | deals, not like the assets themselves, but partnerships and things like that. |
| 1:25.5 | So that's kind of going to be the focus today. We're going to talk a |

| 1:35.9 | So, but, okay, why don't we talk about it? Why don't we tell it? Give you some insight into that. |
| 1:42.7 | And the focused, although it's on deal construction, I think it's important to know that it's |
| 1:52.6 | not standardized, right? |
| 1:54.1 | Like, this depends largely on who, when, where. |
| 1:59.2 | So none of these things are set in stone when you're formatting the partnership and when |
| 2:06.3 | you're formatting how the deal is going to work. |
| 2:09.2 | It's these things can be changed and should be. |
