It would be great to save yourself the expenditure and hassle of booking at peak season when you already own an apartment in your favorite holiday destination.

If it were a house, you would still have to account for long term capital expenditures.

Is this some kind of scam like I buy the land and then I get socked with a bunch of back taxes and fines and penalties or something, or it's Indian burial land and I'm forced to build a 5-star cemetery on it, and I can't get out of it? 

I believe this will will make for a solid 2015 for everyone I work with.I'm also considering selling my primary residence to pay off my HELOC, free up a ton of more capital to invest with, and reduce my monthly expenditures significantly.

As for purchasing an existing national-credit Self Storage facility in today's market, returns are simply too skinny to make it worthwhile for the average investor, in my opinion.On the other hand, with detailed site analysis and selection, RV and boat storage can still provide an excellent return with very little Capital Expenditure to get started (aside from the land itself.)

I am able to evaluate the overall condition of a property as well as accurately budget for repairs and capital expenditures. 

Not extra expenditure there.

(these are things such as selling/refinancing/expenditures over say $25k) If it's 3 people maybe you have it 40/20/20/20 You could set it as requiring 61% vote. 

He just wanted to get out from under them with no further expenditures.
