I became interested in Self Storage and started researching that asset class. 3 weeks later my parents tell me they want to sell their storage units, ironically.

Ironically, the property manager and the insurance carrier are not included in the lawsuit.

My mom’s 50 year old house, 20 miles from Minneapolis that needs yearly maintenance with cast iron pipes, wood siding, a single garage and a cracked 50 year old concrete drive way sold for $275k in 1 day.

Its kind of ironic that you are asking what steps it takes to be wealthy and people are telling you, yet you keep saying, "No, I want actionable steps".

If they don't.... well if you read any of my other things on PM I speak of my philosophy of management called an "Iron Fist in a Velvet Glove", the soft approach doesn't work, than it's all Iron Fist, and I mean that in the most tyrannical ruler means possible, the only measure I have stronger than that is when I call up the lawyer which we refer to as "The Hand of God" because thats the level of destruction she can bring down.

It's ironic, becasue this struggle is what usually sends new investors searching for cheap properties in undesirable neighborhoods or cities that are dying.

The ironic part is after infections got out of control in NY, all the residents fled the state and spread COVID around the country.

Is is old galvanized and cast iron piping, old windows, cabinets, bathrooms, furnaces, etc or has it been renovated.
