I am a big fan of Mike Wagner and his Storage Rebellion. 

Mostly SFH/duplexes, but now own a mini-storage facility and getting ready to close on an office/warehouse. 

That especially true since it sounds like you are looking to buy a self-storage facility/business.

Some counter kid at the local Dollar store was selling it for $1/roll, I bet he had the rest hidden in the back storage area.

After thats done I can probably get 1500-1750$ a month depending on how the economy bounces back.The basement which is currently a shipping area could be changed into a bachelor rental at a cost of probably 12k$ and be rented for 850-1000$ depending.Then there is the factory area, I have thought about making it into a large open space apartment type thing, or just renting it as storage or a factory space for someone else.

Storage units.

I spoke to her today and it sounds like they are already putting stuff in storage (great sign).  

I like your advice, most people in duplexes are probably not expecting to have to cut grass plus there is not much storage for a lawnmower even though you could make it work.

If it was, it is still eligible for 90 day deferment and has the potential for more with investor approval.Many hotel owners and self storage investors utilize this loan products.
