CRE Asset Types hard or impossible to finance?

It used to be that self-storage was difficult to finance -- now it looks like many local commercial banks are happy to do so. The upside is that it is easier to get a self-storage deal done -- the downside is, it is easier for the average Joe to get a self-storage deal done too. 

And when money is cheap and a lot of average Joes are jumping in the same asset class -- cap rates plummet. That's obv good if own assets in that class -- but makes the game tougher if you're trying to get in and actively acquiring properties. 

So the question is:

What are the current CRE asset types that are hard to finance? (But will become easier over time.)

Out of curiosity, what do you consider "small bay", and where do you see that demand coming from?
