I am doing research into the self storage niche of real estate investing. 

Put in self storage.

Asking for your patience...I failed to mention for some crazy reason this is self storage.

Although I work as a commercial real estate analyst for a self storage company (which does brokerage/investing/consulting,) and have some ideas, I'd really like to get your thoughts, in order to do this in the most effective way.Looking forward to what everyone has to say!

Some self storage units in my area have come up for sale and I'm curious on other peoples thoughts on what it's worth.  

@Ryan KramerUps store, eye doctor or some other type of personal treatment / medical useAlso consider creating self storage ?

I have close to 10 years of full time real estate investment experience (rehabbed over 170 houses, own rentals and developed a self storage portfolio of 1100 units) in WV, a declining real estate market.

Noone wants to rent them when 90 percent of houses have basement... which have more storage

I may have had to buy one length of PVC but between my excess stock and the pieces in the storage unit on the property I really just needed more PVC cement.I bought a pedestal sink (discontinued model) at Lowes and a $2.00 toilet at my community wide yard sale. 

Hey everybody, I’m looking to close on my first 42 unit storage facility.
