What are some hurdles you had to overcome to get this deal done?

Learning self-storage coming from a multifamily background, selling the asset type to my investor base when I hadn’t talked to them about self-storage before.

What are some of the lessons you learned with this deal?

You must start raising early. Friends and family isn’t sufficient to raise. You need a marketing strategy.
