I have owned SS  and it has its own set of challenges its not all wine and Roses LOL.My banker is of the opinion that when you hit a downturn SS is one of the first things to get hit.IE someone paying 100 to 150 bucks a month to store their junk just stops paying.and vacancy starts to out strip cash flow and the properties go underwater.what did with mine and it was a unique property being right across the st from 1000 floating homes on the Columbia river or should i say within 2 miles of all those.I put a condo plat on mine and went about sell each storage condo to those floating home folks so they could add value to their floating home.. this worked out well.I also like it when you have the bigger ones kind of like airplane hangers and you sell to the ultra motor coach crowd or those that like to wrench on their collection of cars.. end of he day people need a place to live  storage is a luxury.. but this is hardly a new concept or business its well established.. and your write the herd has put up thousands of units in our area 3 to 4 story buildings and every one of them has move in specials.

You can see black and white paint schemes all over the Austin metro area with new construction, luxury homes, and renovated flips.

The last year I was there it was a luxury apartment that paid me 150/month to live there.

If you have the luxury of making a bigger purchase, perhaps you can purchase a multifamily.

Will be using it again for sure.Can’t figure out how to attach a pic here or I would  https://www.carpet-wholesale.com/item-381139/luxury-vinyl/adura-tile/adura-rigid-plank-collection/lakeview-adura-rigid-plank/rapid.php

For the multifamily deals i made sure to stay away from the A++ and more luxury assets because those people will start to live within their means in the next 9/12 months.  

Today I absolutely donot use carpet unless its a luxury unit or a commercial unit that requires it.

Right now on the coast of the Sonora State in Mexico...in "Kino Bay" or "Bahia de Kino", we just started a pre-sale on our property lots, located in a gated community of over 320 future luxury homes.These property lots will double or even triple in value within 1 to 3 years.Find out what proyects will detonate this area.excellent ocean view, beautiful sunsets, excellent weather.75% of the population are Americans, 15% Canadianas and the other 10% Mexican Nationals....English is the prevalent language spoken there...Excellent retirement community.pm me for more Information about this development and to learn as to why it is an excellent investment opportunity.thank you vey much,

However, as tenants moved out in the spring, a trend in the market allowed for these units to each be flipped and subdivided as luxury condo units.

They target areas where people have extra money for luxury.
