@William MurdenIf there is a broker involved they might have looked at the supply index but I've rarely seen brokers do that and even then I'd do my own due diligence on it.I recommend picking up a copy of the Self Storage Almanac from Mini Storage Messenger.https://www.ministoragemessenger.com/product/2018-self-storage-almanac/As far as doing your own research on the supply index, @Mark Byrge is correct.

A key difference with section 506 investments concerns the products themselves: they are not regulated by the SEC and Investment Company Act of 1940 which governs stocks and mutual funds.  

HiDoes anyone have recommendation for tax accountant that specializes in buy and hold rental properties in Missouri ?

I have an awesome VA specialized loan writer and realtor if you are wanting to bounce ideas off of them.

@Kyle Ferguson If financing is your issue, network with a successful mortgage broker who can is knowledgeable about the various products available to you in your area.

Are there any special tax issues given that the IRA and the partner are doing this project.

Depending on if you want to be a realtor and conduct the transaction-portion of the deals, or rather specialize in other parts of the business, be sure to be specific in where you want to be great and talk to those people doing that line of work.I personally had my license and let it lapse since I instead would rather pay an agent to handle the transaction on my behalf while I look for investors and individuals wanting to partner with me on deals.

That being said, for bridge products you may not need 20-25%.  

Find a local metal shop (preferably one who specialized in wrought iron) and have them weld on the extra needed material, then have the railings powder sandblasted and powdercoated.

Now I have nothing but time on my hand and I would like to meet educated people in the field of real estate investing so I could finally make my dream come true specially now that I’m walking after 5 years with all the struggles I’ve had.
