In fact we have a 3-Day Developer's Academy that we conduct once a year, most recently this past summer 2018.Please feel free to PM me and I'll give you some quick insight as to a high-level approach (as in the 30,000 foot view) to what you realistically need to do to determine if it's feasible and how to do some financial forecasting on the "back of a napkin" to see if it makes sense to move forward.Please note that Developing a Self Storage Facility from the ground up can certainly be lucrative. 

One of the Commercial Real Estate Schools here in Atlanta recently posted this list of Top Commercial Markets for 2019 – here are the top 3: Miami, Florida - With a significant tax advantage in the city and a competitive price per square foot, Miami has continued to see a rise in the commercial market — to the tune of over 8% in year over year increases.

I don’t have the rent per square foot, but I based my rental estimates on what I found listed for rent right now for units with a similar number of bedrooms (since that’s all the information that was in the listing).

There were more TVs per square foot than a Best Buy.

While kind of interesting, some part of the country trade on a price per square foot basis....while other places do not at all, making it sort of a bad comparison across multiple markets where the metric has no meaning.

My opinion is to 100% forget about the price per square foot.....Instead:Find out what the rents are for those units (rent comps from an agent other than the selling agent) and work from that.

I would like to work a few years in the engineering industry and have a side hustle of real estate investing to get my foot in the door.

Me, my wife and two kids have a 1600 sq foot home and we pay $1100 a month for our mortgage payment.

Branch manager insisted, and trained every cashier on a few quick bullet point factoids about homeownership to mention when customers were in the bank doing routine banking stuff.On top of that, the branch manager put a big giant 25 foot sign outside the branch declaring that "We Specialize in Helping First Time Homebuyers!"

The VA loan is THE BEST loan out - hands down... and absolutely start you off on an amazing foot in the realm of REI.
