Thank you for welcoming me to the group. I’ve been involved in the industry by helping owner/operators with websites and management software. Now that I’ve been exposed to the world of self storage for a while, I’m thinking about getting a facility myself! Looking to learn as much as I can from you folks, and also offer any insights on the website / software side that I can provide.

Kept seeing comments on various platforms about how “tedious”tracking advance refundable deposits is, it really piques my interests as what exactly do operators do to “track”? I assume most of softwares take the deposit payment and categorize it (accounting wise) in a separate bucket, and when move out happens, you just click the refund button if the tenant didn’t do any damage? Is this not the case? I had no prior experience taking in deposits so would like to hear others who had and what the pain points are specifically.
