Otherwise, they pay a larger utility fee each month and they share the basement utility room (laundry, storage, and bikes). 

(They’re promoting individual power stations using Tesla solar and batteries and possible the cars for storage.)

The house is in general good condition, but apt is rented under market value.The seller refused to give notice to the current renter, they also refuse to request the renter to clear their stuff from the attic, basement and garage, all of them currently being used as additional storage (even though none of this is stipulated in the lease agreement).I would like to give notice to the renter, as soon as I take possession of the house that I will not be renewing their lease.

Hello BP community, I am buying my first mom and pop's self storage and mobile park and I'm looking for some information about to switching hands, insurance, tenant contracts, etc.If there's a good podcast on this matter or any information one can share. 

My partner is technically my partner's pension plan (49%) and I, personally, own the other 51%.I've decided that I want to 1031 my part into commercial property, most likely self storage.

If you need to hire someone to haul it and rent a storage area, you might be able to charge them for it (if you think they would pay). 

How about this idea.What if your Dad sold his hoarder house and put the hoard in several small storage units.Then you and he move in together and house hack something bigger (but that unit is known as YOUR unit--he lives with you).Both share management responsibilities sensibly and also profits and losses as partners.All new hoarded hoard things MUST go into a small storage unit.Or keep the hoarder house and rent it out--but that keeps your down payment cash pile the same.You can buy all new furniture and mattresses at IKIA or Target and have a fully furnished apartment on the cheap.

Worst case I bet you could easily  and with minimal cost, section off the basement into storage units for your tenants as an add-on to their rent.

While doing 4 above want you to get a job with a self storage location covering during your off hours.
