Although, obviously it did play a role into funding my account I had opened there. 

As it states: If an investment opportunity is open to many people, and if investors have little to no control or management of investment money or assets, then that investment is probably a security. 

So, I could walk upstairs and dig out all the links and contacts and web sites for the research I did on self storage and post it here for you.... but I just sat down, opened an adult beverage, I'm lazy, and besides searching Google for all this will be half of the fun.

If doing so prior to "re-fi" would open up better financing options it seems to be the best choice as we plan to rinse and repeat of coarse.The 1.2 Debt service ratio is the same as DCR ?

And, would this would open a lot more opportunities where the margin is a little tighter because you wouldn't have to pay agents and CC?

I am very open to that, but unsure how to find those people.

This will open many doors for you.

I hope that my experience would open the eyes to the future investors. 

I opened a new LLC in Florida with a nominee manager on the articles of organization.

I am really interested in BRRRR out of state (just finished listening to Brian Greene's book, Long-Distance Real Estate Investing), but open to other ideas as well.
