My goal is to purchase at least 2 facilities this year. I'm looking for my first facility to jumpstart things. I want to put my buy boxes out there so everyone is aware and see how we can work with each other. Ideally, I would like to get 1 or 2 cash flowing facilities first before working on a mismanaged one. However, I know sometimes we can't control the timing of what comes along. If you have something, please send to xelf.xtorage@gmail.com. Maybe include Freedom or something in the subject line so I know it's coming from the group. Thanks.

Just curious…on a previous post by Ying, she had mentioned allowing possible “future tenants” to view the unit before making a decision. We don’t typically allow anyone on the lot to “preview” the unit. I’d love to hear who in the group does this… reasons for why you do, or why you do not. Do many people ask for this? Look forward to hearing your answers

Here is the product that I mentioned on the call that we used on our facility. We sprayed on 2 coats. Sealed well, durable and looks good. https://roofxtender.com/products/roof-x-tender-sup-%C2%AE-sup-700-premium-white%E2%84%A2-acrylic-cool-roof-coating

Finalizing a PSA and would like an attorney to review. Does anyone own storage in GA or know someone who does and have a recommendation for an attorney to review a PSA? Or if you're part of GA SSA, would you be open to searching on the GA SSA member website for recommended attorneys and screenshotting the results? Thanks in advance!

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. 🎥 Premium members can access the full replay inside Live Coaching Call Replay Vault.
