The newest outdoor is still advertising 1st month free as they haven't filled up, and I spoke with the climate controlled owner/builder yesterday (he's a pretty big REI in the area), and he made it sound like he hadn't leased a single climate controlled unit since they opened a few weeks ago.I recently purchased a 140x45 warehouse with low ceilings and had debated doing self storage, but my market seems very saturated.

What happens if you buy the SFH and hate renting it by the room but the cost to maintain is too much by yourself.

That’s why you get a discounted interest rate and a lower downpayment, because owne occupant properties are low risk. 

You can bring in more investors or use higher leverage if you are currently doing low LTV

Don't let the idea of a low interest rate trap you from upgrading to size/scale.

This may not seem like a big issue, but if you're paying for premium data, like I am, it can drive up your cost per deal drastically.I switched to REI Reply last year and can send off over 2000 texts in one drop.

Start small, ensure your numbers (purchase + rehab + holding + selling costs) leave room for profit, and build a reliable team (contractor, agent, lender).For financing, work with lenders who specialize in fix-and-flips. 

Understand the fees involved and calculate the total cost for an entire year of management so you can compare the different managers.

Would it generally be a location that tends to have a higher cost of living?
