Hopefully, by year 3 the market will be good enough for a refinance as well!

As I'm sure you're well aware, the small multifamily space in metro ATL is competitive despite current interest rates. 

@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.

@Jonathan SmallThese are just general and common knowledge about Florida known to most. 

If we include investments in mortgage loans (trust deeds), real estate partnerships, REITs as well as direct property ownership, I’m at about 80%.  

The API doesn’t sync well at all.

I am curious to learn from others as well  :)

You already have a PM, so how is someone else going to manage it as well ?

I’m looking for a local mentor that I can learn from and provide value to so any suggestions on how to find one and pitch myself would be great as well!

I believe I will just be taking over his insurance as well, or that is the intent.
