@Neil Lieb oh man I hadn't heard about that potential tax increase, and those sort of things are exactly what I was hoping to find out from the more seasoned investors on this forum.

Almost certainly too good, even for pickup labor in the slow season.

I'm trying to figure out a way to utilize a large storage building at one of my MTR listings in Memphis.

I didn't like the exchanges being hacked, didn't like the concept of cold and hot storage, 6 word passkeys layers on additional passwords, and those cold storage devices.I actually like my money as digits on a screen, partnerships, and physical real estate.

For many owners, this is a win.Other owners may value the consistent monthly deposits rather than worrying about the usually seasonal STR incomes. 

I think it can be profitable for seasoned real estate investors who have both the time and expertise to make sure their rehab project stays on budget, but I definitely wouldn’t recommend biting off more you can chew and doing BRRRR for your first deal.

If you're accredited start researching potential syndicated deals- Some you can get in for as little as $50K; muitifamily, storage facilities, Residential Assisted Living..... 

They may not take on new clients in the first quarter of busy season.  

Otherwise contract a service for the season that will automatically take care of for every snowfall.4) YES you need to heat them!

Conventional financing would be difficult as they typically require 12 months seasoning to use the newly appraised value.
