And while yes, no one has the same pricing (combination of factors), I also continue to check on a regular basis our rankings and how we "present" on total costs per stay vs. our competitors.My gut says there is price creep and we might have a ways to go before the market really corrects.

Quote from @Caleb Brown: Someone else asked but what would market rents be including the extra storage?

Since the payment was deposited into your account on 1/6/2025, it would typically be considered income for 2025, even though the tenant paid it on 12/31/2024.However, if you use cash-basis accounting (which most landlords do), the key factor is when you physically receive the money, not when it was sent or owed.

I know a few people including co-workers who moved out to Manteca and Stockton and do the horrendous commuteInterestingly there's been a bit of a comeback with San Francisco after people wanting to move out to the suburbs during COVID.

What I want to say in short is; you can't fake it in commercial, you got to have the cash, and if you don't own any cash, become a syndicator for wholesaling, if you can make it rain by finding off-market properties, there's money looking for that, including an end -user.But like Joel Owens said; this isn't 2009 anymore, I was in it and remember it all, it was a unique time, that's not really happening now, and I don't see it happening again.

I suggest gradually assembling a reliable maintenance team that includes HVAC, plumbing, and other essential services.Tenants are responsible for providing access to the property.

They host regular meetups, workshops, and networking events that attract investors across all levels, including those focusing on multi-family and commercial properties.

I’ve been thinking about partnering with a successful wholesaler and seeing if they will expand their operation to include the zip codes I am interested in.Example:  I would like to partner and give money to a successful Detroit or Texas wholesaler and see if they are willing to add my Georgia target market to their operations.Before moving forward, I wanted to get some feedback and advice from those who are wholesalers or who have partnered with wholesalers.Has anyone ever heard or have experience in a partnership like this?
