Hi everyone! I’m so excited to be here, I have joined the community for a while now 🎉

Has anyone in the group developed a storage facility ground up? I have a commercial property under contract that I've verified with the county that storage can be built. How do you determine a pro-forma for ramp up time frame to project revenue?

How concerned should I be about a facility that does not have the electronic records that we're used to seeing from management systems? The property is being sold by a broker who has created a nice OM. However, the limited info that they got from the older owner was handwritten on notebook paper. I can tell the owners are an older couple that are not tech savvy. How do you go about verifying income, rent roll, and etc? What pitfalls to lookout for?

Doing some DD on a facility in a rural area. People around there use Spectrum for internet. I'm looking at the pricing and wondering which plan I would need. See below. From my research, it's not so much the download speed that matters but the upload speed for clearer and smoother videos. How do you determine how many cameras are needed and what internet speed? Also, I've heard of others using Starlink. Wonder if that's an option and how much that would be.

Quick question for those who have wholesaled/self-storage assigned deals before: Have any of you used NDAs with buyers when wholesaling a facility? Or do you not really recommend it? I’m trying to figure out best practices here and whether it’s something I should be implementing or if it creates more friction than value. If anyone has a sample NDA they’ve used before, I’d really appreciate it if you’d be willing to share. Thanks!
