I'm looking forward to meeting some folks here and developing some great relationships!

Not RE-specific but I'd recommend Die With Zero by Bill Perkins and Revitalizing Retirement (focused on our purpose and relationship portfolios) by Nancy Schlossberg.  

In the next part, we'll talk more about how to get along with sellers and negotiate, looking at how powerful good communication and using relationships to get good terms can be.

Reaching out to insurance placement companies like ALE solutions and forming a relationship with a rep can be lucrative too.

If they can be difficult to work with, then I'd be careful renting to them as it's not worth ruining a relationship.2.

Networking is a big priority for me, so I'm looking forward to building relationships within this community.If you have any tips for a newbie in the self-storage sector or just want to connect, please feel free to reach out.

I look forward to connecting and growing relationships with hungry like-minded agents/investors that can give wisdom.

My question is what should I be considering as I think about the structure of our working relationship?

I have a business plan, positive feasibility, relationship with a number of contractors and even the city officials.

@Anna Laud was correct anything in real estate is built on the relationships you develop because someone usually has either the product or answers to what you are looking for.
