Awesome breakdown.As a Newbie trying to get into self storage, I don't know how this made me feel(bankers, construction costs and the overall outlook on things.)I know this is your perspective but hey you are miles ahead in real estate investing and your perspective matters, I guess.

I liked the house and willing to purchase, however, feel sort of undecided given the following reasons. 

Sometimes it feels like nitpicking when you do but what else is the choice.... 

I have a few properties on he eastern shore of Md, feel free to reach out with any questions.

If it's mostly income and the inputs are reasonable then I would feel a lot more comfortable with that than having most of the upside realized upon exit.

If nothing else, you'll probably feel better about yourself if you happen to be coming off a mistake

There are no data points for feeling safe walking in a neighborhood (crime per block is closest), local restaurants (walkability scores are great), capital pouring in the area, etc, like actually driving a neighborhood and/or area

Please feel free to reach out if you have questions or would like to discuss investing in the Reno, NV area.

I would rent or roommate for a year and get the feel for the area , make contacts etc .

No feelings, thoughts, etc.
