Summary
Welcome everybody to Self Storage Income!
Today is an incredibly special episode, and this is just part 1. It represents decades of work, time, effort, successes and failures. As you all know, it takes teams of people and years of discipline and hard work to achieve life goals. It’s a journey of ups and downs and one of the most difficult parts about the journey is having the knowledge to be able to execute successfully. The same applies to self storage investing.
This is one of the reasons I decided to put together the guide of all guides - The Investors Guide to Growing Wealth in Self Storage.
As I said, this guide has taken years of experience for myself and my team to be able to put together for you guys, and I couldn’t be more excited to provide this to you all.
This guide walks you through from start to finish - how to identify a potential storage facility, how to analyze markets, the keys to underwriting, acquiring a facility, changing day where you take over the facility. I even provide real examples with real numbers from deals we’ve done to show you exactly how we’ve gone from owning one storage facility, to now owning and operating over 1 Million square feet of storage valued at over $150 Million.
If you’ve been following me or listening to our podcasts for any length of time, you know that I can’t stand “fluff”. The only thing I want to provide is value. I want to provide actionable steps that you can utilize in your investing to help you build and live the life you’ve always dreamed of. This guide is no different and is probably one of the most (if not the most) valuable pieces of work I’ve ever created.
Today’s podcast is a break down, or a sneak peak if you will, of what you can expect to find in this guide. Take notes and get ready to pick up your own copy of The Investors Guide to Growing Wealth in Self Storage.
