Start Here -> How Small Bay Basecamp Works
Welcome! Small Bay Basecamp is the place where small bay industrial investors - and future investors - come to learn, connect, and talk deals. Whether you own a portfolio of warehouses or you're still figuring out what a cap rate is, you belong here. The only thing we ask is that you participate. There is no other community built specifically for small bay industrial. LinkedIn is noisy and scattered. Facebook groups are generic. This is the one room on the internet dedicated entirely to the sub-30,000 SF multi-tenant industrial space, and the people here range from experienced operators to first-time investors asking sharp questions. That mix is what makes it valuable. The single most important thing you can do right now: Introduce yourself in the Member Introductions discussion thread. Tell us who you are, what market you're in or interested in, and where you are in your journey - whether that's closing your tenth deal or researching your first. The people in this room are your future deal partners, your sounding board, and your competitive edge, but only if they know who you are. How to get the most out of this community: This community lives and dies by what its members put into it. The feed is where the real value is. Post a deal you're evaluating and ask the room what they think. Share a market observation that others might not be seeing. Ask the question you've been stuck on - there are no dumb questions here, only expensive lessons you can avoid by asking first. Answer someone else's question with what you've learned. Challenge an assumption. The more you engage, the more this room gives back. Post in the right category — Market Discussion for trends, observations, and debate. General Discussion for everything else. Member Intros to tell us who you are. Sharpen your fundamentals: The Classroom has a full six-module course - the Small Bay Industrial Investor Toolkit - covering everything from asset class fundamentals and deal underwriting to BRRRR strategy, value-add execution, capital structuring, and deal sourcing. Each module includes a downloadable checklist you can use on your next deal. Work through it at your own pace, and bring your questions back to the feed.

Jump in with your deal...
I talk to a lot of investors who are looking at their first small bay deal. The number one thing that slows them down isn't finding deals. It's not financing. It's not underwriting. It's confidence. They find a deal that looks good on paper. They run the numbers. The numbers work. And then they sit on it for two weeks second-guessing themselves because nobody in their life can tell them whether they're seeing it right. That's what this room is for. If you're sitting on a deal right now, or even a market you're evaluating, post it in Deal Analysis. You don't need a polished underwriting model. Just tell us: what's the property, what are the numbers, and what's making you hesitate? I'll personally weigh in on every deal posted this week. And I know there are at least a few operators in here who will too. No judgment. No gatekeeping. Just a room full of people who'd rather help you avoid a $50K mistake than watch you make one quietly.
