Most people think finding a good storage deal means getting lucky — stumbling onto the right listing at the right time. That's not a system. That's a lottery ticket.
When I was building my portfolio, I realized the investors who close deals consistently aren't smarter than everyone else. They just have a repeatable process for generating deal flow. Seven specific methods, to be exact. And most of them run on autopilot once you set them up.
Some of these methods work fast — you can have conversations this week. Others build momentum over time and become your best source of off-market deals six months from now. The key is using more than one at a time. Deal flow is a numbers game, and when you have multiple channels running, the deals find you.
Across my 8 facilities, I've used almost every one of these methods. Some surprised me with how well they worked. Others I wish I'd started sooner.
I put all seven into a free guide so you can start building your own deal flow system — even if you're still working a W2 and can only carve out a few hours a week.
