Lets talk about Self-Storage

Frank Granata

As someone who has never invested in real estate, self-storage seems like a great way to break into real estate investing. What are your thoughts on this? From sourcing/analyzing deals to financing to cash flow. Is self-storage as great an opportunity as it seems or are there pitfalls to be weary of? I'd love for you to share your experiences so I can gather some real world advice. Thanks!

Self-storage is a great asset class with many benefits.  If you operate them well, they can produce a great return and hedge against inflation.  Like any other asset class, I'd recommend building a strong base of knowledge before jumping in.  Feel free to shoot me a message if you'd like to get on a call.
