Summary
Welcome back to the Self Storage Income Podcast!
As per usual - I’m one of the biggest cheerleaders that the self storage industry has ever seen. This doesn’t mean though that self storage is without its thorns or pitfalls. Don’t buy into the hype - there are very real risks of investing actively or passively in self storage.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of people out there who have built businesses around this idea that self storage can’t fail. Not only does this expose them and their business to massive amounts of unnecessary risk, it exposes their investors.
So what gives? How can we tell the difference between a good self storage investment and a bad self storage investment?
I can’t answer this for you fully - but there are certainly some investing fundamentals that you should absolutely know and be considering. This is exactly what we’re going to be talking about on today’s podcast. So don’t miss this one!
Thanks everybody,
AJ
