📌 Live Q&A Recap | Door Upgrades, Due Diligence & Smart Promotions

Today’s Freedom Through Storage Live Q&A was packed with operator-level conversations around facility improvements, deal caution, tenant promotions, and exit strategy thinking.

We covered:

• Bird dogging and relationship-based deal sourcing

• How to approach owners without sounding desperate

• Red flags during due diligence (especially hidden CapEx)

• Roof repair surprises and wholesaler transparency

• Modern steel door upgrades and current pricing

• Wind code and FEMA compliance considerations

• Timing rent increases with seasonal demand

• Move-in specials, admin fees, and lock incentives

• How facility size impacts buyer pool and exit strategy

One big reminder from today:

👉 The deal you avoid can be just as important as the one you close.

The value of community is having experienced operators pressure-test opportunities before you commit.
