Self storage - Interested in getting started

Hello!

I'm new to real estate, I live in Buffalo, NY.

I am intrigued by the idea of operating a self storage facility.

Any feedback on cons of doing this? Barriers to entry? Day to day challenges, etc.

If you have a recommended reading on this topic I'd love to check it out.

Thanks in advance for any guidance

-JM

@Joshua Mcdougall I work for a self storage REIT headquartered in Buffalo. I might be able to answer some questions you have.
