Craig, More Factors here than what you have listed, but for a QUICK Evaluation in Self-Storage: 1.  

Location is probably the most important factor of it all.  

With all of these factors coming into play.

Many other factors can influence the ultimate returns these projects generate.  

Past history, current practice, tax return treatment are all a part of the picture you paint. 

@Kodie Altvater costs are ultimately a factor of 2 items, if you're efficient: labor+ materials.the goal is to arrive as close as possible to just those 2 factors with as little add-on as possible. add-on being profit, a companies overhead, etc. labor and materials are unavoidable (as well as other stuff like permits)....so how does one arrive at those costs?

Make sure you factor that into your numbers. 

Treatment programs were pursued with vigor leaving little time to manage the preschool, which my wife unexpectedly closed, to my great surprise and at a great financial loss.

Amenities are fine to consider but the major factors are going to be bedrooms, baths, square footage, location, and quality of the unit.

The priced paid on a loan is based on the many factors which can primarily boil down to property, borrower and paperwork.
