@Victor Lee - I opt for realtors who hustle, because I do the same in my own work.

And in your free-time, consume as much reading material on the subject as you can.

When working with an online 3rd party scheduler, most often you will be responsible for printing and prepping the paperwork which can be very time consuming and even costly at times.

Never had a potential tenant opt out because of no disposal. 

I do see the value in investing locally if I opt out of an owner-occupied unit.

This sort of system is more important the more successful you become because as you get leads you will be receiving new inquiries as you follow up on old inquires and it becomes both time consuming and confusing if you don't have a central place to track all the activity.

As such, as decrease in demand from the folks who do use storage as a discretionary consumable is offset by those who find themselves NEEDING storage as a result of downsizing, relocating, divorce (more marriages end as a result of financial challenges in a recession) etc. 

The strategy was to list it to a consumer buyer looking for a large modern 5 bed 3 bath home located in central Tucson.

But, his FICO used to acquire the LOC which pays expenses essential to complete the transaction is a significant contribution; equivalent in value to the consumed amount of the credit line.  

The process of development, especially one-offs, is so time-consuming that I tend to want that profit when finished because that was the whole point.
