If you missed yesterday’s Power Hour call… well, let’s just say it was absolutely loaded. We had a stacked room of seasoned operators and fired-up first-time buyers — and we went deep. 🎧 Catch the replay now inside the classroom — you don’t want to miss this one. 🔑 Highlights from the call: ✅ Lock audits + boots-on-ground systems: exactly how we use DaVinci and Cubby for lock management and streamline monthly audits 🧠 "Massive Imperfect Action" in real life: how one investor turned a single mailer into a 42-property, $71M portfolio (yep, you read that right) 🔥 Mike Perkins’ FIRST facility story: after 2+ years of grit, Mike closed his first deal, shared real ops tips (angle grinder > bolt cutters!) and the exact mindset that got him there 💬 Raw operator Q&A: how to underwrite snow removal, insurance premiums, and real estate taxes the right way in tricky markets 🌪️ State-by-state risk analysis: where hurricanes, reassessments, and double taxation can crush deals—and how to underwrite around them 💡 Real talk on "your why": what pushes you to keep going when it feels like progress is slow 🎯 Whether you're under contract or still looking for that first deal, this session was filled with practical tools, real stories, and a heavy dose of encouragement. 👉 Go watch it now and drop a takeaway in the comments when you do. Let’s keep the momentum rolling!

Two members of our FIRST FACILITY coaching program made huge strides this week—and I couldn’t be more proud of the progress they’re making. Client RS is on-site right now, working through due diligence on his very first deal. He spent over a year searching and even joined a big-name coaching program 10 months ago. While it gave him solid info, it lacked the personal support he needed—monthly calls with 200+ people just didn’t cut it. Since joining our more hands-on, boutique-style program, he’s been gaining traction fast. With a strong “why” driving him, he’s on track to change his financial future and create more time for his family. Client DK just had his LOI accepted, and we’re now moving into the PSA phase. Just two months ago, he was brand new to the storage space. But with consistent effort, weekly calls, and a commitment to learning, he’s already landed a great opportunity—2,000 miles from home! His willingness to take action and stay coachable has made all the difference. When I launched this community, my goal was simple: help stuck and overwhelmed W2 professionals buy their first cash-flowing self-storage facility within 6–12 months. Seeing that happen—sometimes even faster—is what it's all about. Still plenty of work ahead to get these deals across the finish line, but we’re closer every day, and doing it together makes all the difference. Big congrats to RS and DK! (And there are more success stories in the pipeline—I’ll share those soon.) Let’s keep building. Together—we win.

Team - here is a low key site that lists self storage facilities for sale. Many of them you will also find on Crexi, or Loopnet, but often there are deals listed here, that are not found anywhere else - less eyeballs, less competition. Add this to your arsenal, setup a free account, and you will get emails frequently with potentially fresh deals. Check out List Self Storage, a product by Stortrack, when you can: https://listselfstorage.com/

I am going to meetup groups, past work & friend get togethers and local REI's. I encourage you to make connections and offer others opportunities to build wealth together. Post up other good ideas we can all get involved in our local peeps.

Happy Friday everyone As I start compiling a list and contact owners, there’s likely going to be properties that don’t fit my buybox but they might fit yours. If you post your buy box, I can send them your way or if anyone wants to grab a quick call to connect and share your buy box, let me know
