Curious if anyone here is doing much with month-to-month flex space versus more traditional leases. I’ve had some success with a few different setups that combine things like staging or storage space, shared dock access, restrooms and vehicle parking. Some of it has been delivery-related businesses, and the demand has been better than I expected. It has me thinking more about older manufacturing or industrial buildings with decent parking as a possible first flex purchase. Seems like there could be a lot of ways to make the space work without having to build out traditional bays from day one. Anyone doing something similar? Curious what has worked well and what has ended up being more trouble than it was worth.

The call recordings take time to prepare. Not many people are watching them, so I am considering cutting them. For example, last week’s video only has 20 views. Who is actually watching the calls and are they helpful?

Hi everyone, I’m Scott from New Hampshire. I’ve spent the last 27 years in self-storage and currently serve as President of U-Haul Company of Eastern Massachusetts. Over the past year I’ve become increasingly interested in small bay industrial and have been incorporating flex space into some of our existing properties while working toward my first acquisition. Looking forward to learning from the group and contributing where I can.

I recently came across Flexible Flex Space concepts and am curious about the success of this business model. These facilities are essentially the industrial equivalent of coworking spaces. They typically provide shared office amenities on one side and warehouse space on the other. Many are developed by repurposing existing buildings such as former call centers, schools, and vacant big-box retail properties. Examples: - FlexEtc - WareSpace I would appreciate insights from anyone familiar with this model: 1. How successful has this concept been in practice? 2. What do the typical economics and pro forma look like? 3. What are the biggest operational challenges and risks? 4. Is this a business model worth exploring for value-add industrial investors and developers? I would love to hear real-world experiences from owners, operators, brokers, or investors who have worked with co-warehousing or flexible industrial space concepts.
