I'm sure your doctor has already informed you this is very likely a classic presentation of general depressive disorder, a lifelong condition.

It seems like an interesting opportunity (when done right of course), so it would be great to get some of your feedback, especially if any of you currently own storage unit facilities.Here is a quick list of some pros/cons that I came up with after a little bit of research:Pros:- Very little tenant face time and maintenance, due to nobody living in it- Less upkeep and maintenance than live-in properties- More secure as there are no tenants, and only one way into people's property- Utilities are more controlled, as you set the climate conditions and not a tenant (or offer non-climate controlled)- A small number of property managers can manage a large number of units- Potential to also sell ancillary supplies for profit (boxes, packing goods, moving supplies, etc..)- Potential to sell your own insurance for your own facility units (legal hoops with this I am sure but a large number of facilities have this)Cons:- High price point to obtain a facility, you can't just buy a handful of units within a facility (that I know of)- Vacancy rate is relatively high at ~8-12%- Current supply trend for facilities is outpacing consumer demand in most markets- However, investor demand is very high which is driving up price/sqft of many facilities- Potential for turnover is higher with tenants, unless marketing towards businesses storing excess goods/supplies- Large facility with a lot of sqft to maintain and upkeepWould be great to get some feedback from you savvy investors!

It isn't "zero down".In the current climate, prosecutors get promoted for finding people who abuse mortgage law and take advantage of people.

Not sure of the climate of where you're located, but I live in a very rural area with harsh winters. 

A lot of folks are also leaving cold climates moving to warmer areas as well, if you notice a lot of the cities pointed out in your report are in the sunbelt region.  

Many units also provide heat and in a warm climate like Charlotte they may be able to eliminate any other heating units you currently have.

I am most interested in vacation/short term rentals in warmer climate markets and travel destinations.

This proxy presence should also be very familiar with the real estate investing climate in this area.

If you believe the earth is getting hotter, the artics are melting, and that climate is changing, you can expect that it will get flooded.We looked at some places on the east coast in a beach community.
