I currently own two SFH rentals, and my partner & I are looking to break into the world of Self Storage. 

I wrote a BP book on self storage and the last third of it is dedicated to 7 different paths to get into the business.

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.

Hello all.I have been following a few threads on self storage units .

Looking to get recommendations for insurance providers for small Self-Storage facilities in NC.

The fat-lady sung the album simply has yet to be released.     

We finished the unfinished basement in one of the units and added a large bedroom, bathroom, living room, workout room/office and storage room.

In my case, I have residential rentals in one LLC, commercial properties in another, self storage in a third, and my real estate company operates in a fourth.

I'm curious to hear what you believe the most challenging aspect is when it comes to getting zoning approved or approval in general for a specific project (i.e. self storage, multifamily, HCV, etc.)? 

For example - Multifamily properties, student housing, triple net lease, self storage, etc...The sponsor of the offering does the research on the deal and acquires the property and lets investors like you purchase pieces of the property, or in this case, exchange your current equity into equity in one of these deals.These usually pay out 5-10% annual cash flow paid monthly.
