@Jim Kittridge I have a feeling that the more I listen to podcasts, Youtube, etc. the more I tend to hesitate of actually doing something. I'm pretty open to partnering with more experienced people and get on a deal with someone. How do you suggest to start networking? Make another post on BP? :) 

@Adam Lacey i think partnering with someone more experienced will be my next move. i've run a business before, i know operations and processes, and i think where i can bring the most value is in technology. 

@Cason Acor I'm in the finding a partner stage right now, but at the same time just trying to weight in all the pros and cons. Do you think my first step should be to shop around for lenders willing to work with me?

@Jay Hinrichs thanks for the input, I will definitely check Scott's profile and what he has to offer. The more I research the SS field the more it gets complicated. I'm no stranger to operations but my experience comes from IT and mostly technical stuff :) 

I'm new to real estate, but I've been thinking of investing in self storage. I'm starting to have second thoughts after talking to a realtor. He's saying that it will be really tricky to convince banks to finance something like that for someone who doesn't have experience in managing commercial properties. Do you think he has a valid point and I should look into maybe SFHs/multifamilies first?
