The mistake you’re about to make could sink your self storage deal.

We’ve been there many times before. We’ve been too aggressive with our numbers, cut corners on due diligence, and lost money. Thankfully, you don’t have to make these same mistakes.

Conner and George are shining a light on the biggest red flags and pitfalls that catch self storage investors by surprise and, in some cases, leave them with a problematic asset that bleeds money. From environmental complications to “phantom” occupancy, we address the warning signs that should tell you to walk away or at least go back to the drawing board with your self storage underwriting.

The truth is that not all of these issues automatically spell doom for your self storage facility. Some roadblocks that might scare off the average investor could actually be opportunities hidden in plain sight.

But preparation is the key.

With real-life examples, we’ll show you exactly how to approach every deal, from deep market and competition analysis to due diligence checks and balances, so that the next self storage facility you buy is set up for success.
