Glad you have experience investing locally. 

This deal came through Partner Driven's local network in Windsor, NC.

Its market-ready condition and strong local demand made it ideal for a fast, profitable transaction, aligning perfectly with Partner Driven’s strategy of securing high-yield properties in promising locations.

Return:Finishing the basement and adding bedrooms can add significant value, especially if your local market places a premium on additional living space.

@Luke Spencer I am not on the management side but I can tell you it took 2+ years to fill 300 units at one of our facilities and the other just hit 300 units in 12/13 months so it really depends on the demographics, and local housing market trend, the more people moving in and out the higher the demand for storage.I think if you're looking at a saturated market then the upfront cash to turn the warehouse into self storage is not a good idea but then again, maybe those operators are on back roads ( low visibility ) and don't push google ads well.

I would like to speak with local investors, real estate agents, property managers, lenders, etc. from the area.

Apparently, local jurisdictions here are saying they want more affordable housing, but in the same sentence will also say that there will be more regulations, more environmental protections, and more hoops to jump through to develop starter homes. 

For me, it’s been a mix of local friends and paid contractors.

The PM will also fix things when needed, using local handymen or contractors, and collect the rent for you.
