I’m always happy to meet up for a coffee or a beer any time just to hang out and chat!  

Would you be willing to chat sometime and discuss potential investing areas?

You mentioned that in our phone chat but it kinda slipped my mind.

I'm in Sac and can chat over it if you want.

Perhaps the inspector would let you slide with videos and pics of when the walls were opened.

The low-hanging fruit is gone, but if you're willing to work hard by getting off the beaten path and overturning a lot of rocks, you can be quite successful.And there are several resources - quite a few folks here on Bigger Pockets and the many specific BP posts and forums from those knowledgeable Investors & Owners, your State Self Storage Association, podcasts, You Tube Videos, and some of us even have written books and/or have meetings and trainings too.In other words, there's quite a bit at your disposal. 

You're in a small town, look into the social scene for small towns.To do this consider joining the Moose, the Elks, the Eagles, the Rotarian, the Free Masons, the Chamber of Commerce, etc...Figure out which ones are more business oriented vs blue collar--and mix and make friends....most are just drinking clubs so you have to be 21), be accepted and pay a yearly fee.https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2hwqok

I actually chatted with the local owner and he said he would've put the money in but his son is not interested in his business being a college professor in a foreign country working in the field he enjoys.
