We are seeking permitting for a 2 phase build:Phase 1: 75,000sf of Climate Control, 30,000sf of Non Climate Control, 30,000 of Boat/RV StoragePhase 2: additional 75,000sf of Climate controlTo answer a question mentioned in this thread there are 3 REITs that focus on 3rd party management for a 6% fee.  

The old retired landlords that I'm buying these properties off of are all wealthy and just moving to warmer climates bc they can, on multiple occassions I've been talking to these men about my longterm goals, and they have said "if you just stay here and do this you will be wealthy for life" . 

I will start at the macro level (demographics, anticipated growth, economic climate, etc) and work my way down to particular neighborhoods/geographies. 

We have 3 grade doors 1 dock high. 12-14 clear height, majority climate controlled. 

I would say it depends on your climate.

A lot of the more experienced folks on here have keyword alerts setup for their favorite markets, and will contribute when those keywords are mentioned (like I just did after someone said "SEATTLE").As for markets- we invest in the PNW (6 rentals), and although cashflow is harder to find out here its an absolutely wonderful place to live, and not as bad an investment climate as everyone likes to make it out to be.

In this climate, you should be able to get interest as disbursed, and not the entire loan amount - this will reduce your carrying cost throughout the life of the project.  

Climate is quite different here.

Sorry, but that's the climate today.

What I do have is some sort of genetic disorder called "a sometimes misguided passion for real estate investing" that at times interferes with other areas of my life.
