I’ve seen this question floating around in a few different threads. If you stacked up Buildium, Door Loop, Yardi Breeze, Other PMS Brand TBD in a poll, who would come out of top and why… specifically for small bay industrial?

Quick update since a few of you asked after my intro: I hired @Vanessa Ballard and she made a beautiful, new, conceptual site plan. The plan grew from about 36,000 SF to 51,240 SF of 1,500 to 2,000 SF bays because she found a much more efficient layout than my own test fit. Feasibility is next, then entitlement, then financing. Two things I learned that I did not know two weeks ago: If you lease 15 or more bays on a well, TCEQ treats you as a public water system. That changes the budget and the timeline. The fire code line that matters for contractor bays is not 12,000 SF. It is 5,000 SF if tenants park work trucks inside. I have to find out how that is assessed by the marshal in our pre-development meeting, however. What I'm looking for now is a partner, not just a quote. That could be a lender who has done spec small bay in a rural county, a JV partner who wants in on the equity side, or a GC willing to partner on a 50K SF metal building program. If you're any of those or know someone who is, I'd like to talk. I'll be at the meetup tomorrow night and at the conference. Come find me if you're building around Houston! -Sai Vipparla

Hey All, I'm a small bay industrial flex investor and syndicator. Over the last two years, my team and I have closed on 7 assets in markets all across the country. My favorite parts of this asset class are the support it provides to small businesses and getting people connected with these great investments. Looking forward to get to know this community!

I talked through how Basecamp came together with Thaddeus Campbell on Storage Unlocked

Hi everyone - I'm a self-storage and newer small-bay investor in PA and West Texas. I've been in this group for a while but just started reading all the community posts and they're awesome! There is so much great info - thanks for doing this Will! Hope to meet a bunch of you in Houston this week.
