Owning several apartment buildings with a minimum of 25 to 30 units each.

I am looking for cash flow positive storage building in Texas, off a major highway, with value add potential, preferably in North Texas (Sherman/Denton/McKinney), Central Texas (Waco/Austin/San Antonio), West Texas (Odessa), or greater Houston area.
