While you can use the SBA program (504 or 7a) for certain real estate acquisitions - self storage, hotel and/or RV Park/campground properties (gets tricky), rentals would not work.

That's a fat no!.

I am wanting to think big, perhaps even considering self storage somewhere and making a real company out of this, buying more SS facilities over time.

For my wife and I, we would continue this process until 20% of the dividends exceeded our desired future living expenses, and donate a vast majority towards worthy causes.Lastly, we would also use a tax levered savings vehicle for the long-term “storage” of our money as well.

I'm very interested in small multifamily and self storage as well.

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.

Yea, just was asking in case people had success with other things such as storage facilities or other things that do not require a lot of parking.

there are staging companies . id use those and see if it makes a difference and if it does for you and have storage capabilities can buy your own furniture for your flips to move in and out of
