With financing you can easily buy in solid B class neighborhoods in affordable markets like Indianapolis and Kansas City.

I think there's a lot of great info which can be shared... and more easily, by people not in the same markets.

If and when that happens, housing prices might take off like they have in southern California, where what was once affordable now is not.I could easily buy a house now "in-land" in southern California, or Costa Rica and live 30 minutes to 1 hour+ from the beach.   

I am holding off tenants right now because its vacant and I can do showings easily.

I’m just thinking this could easily make me $1k/month now and for years to come and into retirement.

It just keeps the random yahoos from easily finding my name linked to the rentals. 

I could have been started correctly, but can easily lead to prohibited transaction.

I'm going to preface all my responses by saying I've only been learning about self-storage for about a month, and I say that to say that I'm still sorting out what I think the best strategy will be for me, but also that the strategy I initially decide on could easily change as I continue to learn about self-storage. 

Something else to consider: in my experience you are going to have a hard time being so-easily granted $25k at 2.99% to do whatever you want with again, I recommend taking advantage of it before you’re outside the window.I apologize for the long-winded answer. 

When we receive an investment summary for an apartment syndication, it is us to verify the assumptions supplying the pro forma, but it can be done relatively easily compared to analyzing a massive company.
