Advice on storage unit purchase

[Mike Savory]

I've been researching and preparing to buy my first rental property, and an opportunity came up to buy the lot next to my house. This lot includes a 2-year-old, 1,700 square foot steel building with three bays that would be ideal for car or boat storage.

I'm looking or advice or resources for determining any legal/zoning issues with renting storage space in a residential area. And does anyone have experience with services like Neighbor or Stowit to list your storage property?

Thanks in advance for any guidance!
