I would need at least 4 clips per drywall sheet.In an internet search, the cheapest US suppliers that post prices appear to be charging almost $5 per clip, even in 1000+ quantities.

In this game you won't find deals on the internet.

@James Wise - fair point but as the market advances, their 8% - 10% plus aggressive placement fees, renewal fees, vacancy fees, the list goes on will have to come down or the likes of Hemlane.com and Buildium will begin to expand their service offering and make the "on the ground people" obsolete just like roofstock is doing to zillow and redfin or internet banking did to banks.

We don't need to worry about discussing information with 3 separate parties (Seller, Realtor & Property Manager)As I write this it's important for you to know my background as when you are on internet forums like this what you'll get is a lot of people jumping in and giving out opinions on the situation.

Has the Internet killed the coaching and courses model?

Was it using an internet listing service like  LoopNet, BP or via local brokers? 

Everything that you asked above.And sometimes it makes more sense to build than to buy, so we also have a 3-Day Developer's Academy that focuses on ground up and conversions too.So part of this may be a shameless plug (of course hopefully within the guidelines of BP) but also to preempt and let you know that there is a wealth of information available - a lot here can be procured on BP, and reaching out to folks like Mike Wagner, or on the internet like Inside Self Storage Investors, both the national & your state Self Storage Association, and folks like myself too - you tube videos, podcast, etc.So you'll not be in lack of information, but be sure that you're best able to simplify it, categorize it, & then action upon it. 

They are low maintenance.I personally have zero interest in installing a camera of my own at the property (many reasons, including: one more thing to maintain, no internet in my name at property, cost, any other issues like this that arise because of it, etc.), but I'm having trouble forming an opinion about this, so I'd love some feedback - pros, cons, etc. 

Are they using some chop shop internet lender, or are they using a lender who has a reputation for closing, closing on time and closing without issue.

I was calling around those towns on Wednesday, going off internet reviews, I only have 2-3 agents/pm's to choose from, so that will be a huge challenge.
