Greetings Self-Storage Enthusiasts,So I've been silently stalking BP for self-storage guidance for a few months and it's time to break the silence.

Dion, first of all I thank you for the long and detailed answers, i have no problem with your honesty.I know that I can't myself service notes, I guess I wrote "setting up the payments" in my mind was like boarding the notes to a service company that has all the knowledge about regulation etc.Also as in JV maybe I don't have the right knowledge but I meant as two people coming together in some sort of a contract or LLC, one is the investor and one is the "know - how guy", of course I don't think that at this stage I would be the "know-how guy", I just wanted to figure out if there is any customary terms in notes like 50-50 split or whatever.Also this post is part of me learning, I read the forums and read some books, viewed some videos and wanted a bit more information and answers to stuff I had in mind, I thought about pulling the gun on investing in a note as part of a JV so I could learn from and experienced investor.I don't take this business lightly and I don't expect rainbows and unicorns just yet, I know I have big gaps in knowledge but that's why I try to learn and digest as much as possible.

There are revocable trusts, irrevocable trusts, self-settled trusts, land trusts, gun trusts, medicaid planning trusts.......the list goes on and on. 

He was held up at gun point multiple times.

A black glove with a middle finger showing and a nailed up note with the tenants name underneath, KKK Neighborhood Watch notices, couple of n****r messages, and the oldy but goldy, a noose in the front yard.Our tenant calls the cops, and absolutely nothing happens apart from the neighbor being told that if he fires his gun outside again he'll be arrested.Over the next few months this continues.

To be fair, I think deflation would be temporary (it better be, or else invest in guns & ammo) and is a bit of a "black swan" event, but it is possible and I think more probable today than people are tending to give it credit for (my opinion and gut feel).

Stick to your guns and don't overpay.

The other option is to find some young gun new agent.
