Look at comparables in your neighborhood.

I am comparing Apartment Vs Self storage for investment and found this thread.

Here's a short list of just a portion of the features from:  https://www.myreipro.com/pricing 10 Step Workflow System InstalledREIPro Home ValueRent ValueProperty DetailsTax InformationMortgage InfoTransaction HistoryStreet ViewReal Comparable SalesRecorded Sales - Not Estimated ValuesFree Phone Number LookupCell Phone & Non-published NumbersNearest Relative Phone Number LookupSeller Phone Scripts & QuestionsGet Offers Accepted with Our Multiple Offer SystemMake Cash OffersMake Lease Option OffersMake Seller Finance OffersPrint Offers on DemandThe Cons:  For me, the $1068 for the year was just over what I wanted to pay.  

Everything else is, comparatively, a bit “noisy”.The job market has begun to turn away from historic lows with current unemployment brushing up against 4%.

We recommend you get management contracts from several PMCs and compare the services they cover and, more importantly, what they each DO NOT cover.

They will provide a lower initial rate compared to a fixed-rate mortgage.Also, a little insider secret here.

Pierce CountyAverage Purchase Price: Approximately $500,000Average Rent Prices: Around $2,000 - $2,200 per month for a typical 2-3 bedroom home.Investment Appeal: With major city Tacoma undergoing revitalization and its proximity to Seattle, Pierce County is appealing due to its affordable property prices compared to King County and strong rental market.

Super low compared to individual tax returns (Form 1040).

Compare the all-in $'s to putting in a 14x40 single wide, basically. 

Note: I know owner will have to pay capital gain tax, etc. so I want to put a proposal together that can compare selling on the market vs. selling it to me and how advantageous it would be, but I can’t find the right numbers for it to work yet.- How do I make this work?
