| 0:00.0 | Is it better now than to just buy in places where there's no way that more properties could be built? |
| 0:12.0 | So that's a great question and I'd say the problem with those |
| 0:16.4 | markets is that those markets are astronomically expensive right and really you're talking about... |
| 0:23.0 | Something about like Vegas. |
| 0:25.0 | Like Vegas, like if you buy a self storage place in the surrounding area, there's not a lot of just huge lots that could be built into self storage. |
| 0:32.0 | Yeah. And so those you're going to pay massive premiums to get |

| 1:20.0 | Honestly, 80% of the markets in the United States today, I would not touch, I couldn't develop it. |
| 1:25.4 | Because I couldn't get rates that would make it even worth it. |
| 1:28.9 | We couldn't pencil. |
| 1:30.1 | So that means there's a lot of markets that people aren't going to develop in. |
