We lived with it for a while and kept it as storage/ laundry, but it was always the black-eye of the property.

Hi there,I am selling a rental of mine and decided to invest in a larger property, especially in self-storages.

Put the shoe on the other foot, you worked hard to own property that you care for and a renter is now subleasing without your permission. 

Therefore, we had to move in a rental house and pay for storage for 3 months, on top of getting an extension on our loan, as well as increasing the amount we borrowed.

I once visited a RV storage lot that had few containers.

What would you do if you were in my shoes?

I am looking for recommendation for a good lawyer to set up an LLC  for a storage unit property that I am looking to purchase.

If I was in your shoes, I would start going through the Biggerpockets podcast and webinar archive and finding episodes that our geared towards beginners and the tips for networking, building a core group of contacts, and learning the fundamentals of finding and analyzing deals. 

If I were in your shoes, I would dig deep into the numbers and try to understand how the asset can reasonably perform in your market.

Our guest, AJ Osborne, shares an incredible story of building his real estate business — which focuses on self-storage facilities — as a way to transition his family from rich to wealthy (and yes, there is a difference!)
