Is storage unit investing a way to protect equity from crash?

[Jack B.]

From what I've read, storage units weathered the last crash well. I also like the fact that it's so low maintenance.

Personally I'd love to do something like land with a fence just for boat and RV storage, no buildings even. That would be nice. Extremely low overhead, and tons of cash flow for very little effort and risk.

There is a place like this by one of my rentals. It's a 2-3 acre lot with a fence and many RV's, boats, etc. for all those people who live in HOA's in the area and can't store their boats at home.
