I live in one unit, rent out the other unit, and rent out the detached garage for storage. 

Fat fingers, lol!

Purchase price: $31,000 Cash invested: $66,000 Sale price: $147,500 Converted an abandoned, condemned three bedroom, one and a half bath home with two rooms (one 30x15) unused/used as storage, and attached single car garage that we (my business partner and I) emptied (3, 30 yard dumpsters!)

You're thinking far further steps ahead and weathering the volatility to reap likely more a fat-tails esque reward which likely does happen at the turn of the next inflation wave(not this secondary one coming up).From 08-16 you could do the former, from 17 fwd it's best to the do the latter.

Being a part time agent is no longer a viable "side hustle" because it requires a much higher level of skill to get listings than it does to tell your friends "work with me, it's free, sellers pay me"I love it.You can tell by the lack of response’s to this thread just how dominated by agents bp has become 🤣 Cutting the fat bro, it's gonna be good for those of us who operate on an elite level.

You don't want to start a relationship to learn about storage units and then find out they only invest in single-family homes.3.

Seller will financeLarge building with 3 storage bays/shops on one end1.

Our storage business they will collateralize at 80% of value.  

With DSCR above 0.9 there are some hope.ps: i heard one self storage guy is having 0.2 dscr
