Doing competitive analysis for unit sizes competitors do not have.
Doing competitive analysis for a facility. This facility has odd sizes that the competitors do not have. How do I compare the prices since the competitors do not have the same sizes? Just get the average $/SF of each property and use that to calculate the price for each of my sizes? Use all sizes to get the average price/sf or just use 10x10 and 10x20 (maybe one other size) to get the average price/sf?
What to do when they say yes?
I’ve started making outbound calls this week to storage facilities and have gotten plenty of no’s and quick hang ups. But I’ve been wondering what to say when they do say yes. Like is it just “Cool, send me over your trailing 12 and NOI” or??? How do you handle it from there?

Get some basic information from them depending on what they are ready and comfortable sharing over the phone. Definitely email address to send list of required info to. Get some basic info over phone if they have that available and comfortable with it...such as Total Facility Sq. Ft, Property Sq. Ft, vacancy rate, what they pay for insurance, property tax, and utilities. If they have fencing, cameras, or automatic gate. Very important is to the Unix Mix so you can see what sizes they have and how much they are charging for each size. As Brielle mentioned, see if they've had other offers or a sale price in mind so you can get an idea of their expectations. Whatever they are comfortable sharing on the first call is great, else you have an email address to request more info.
Great Connection
The great thing about a community like this one is that you can pick up the phone and connect with other members. I had the opportunity to chat with @Tommy Xaysongkham this morning. Sharing and helping others is what it's all about!
