Episode #152
Given the current lending upheaval with storage facilities, obtaining seller debt is a welcome change from traditional banks. But there are some minimum thresholds regarding seller note construction that you need to be aware of. In this Self-Storage University podcast we’re going to explore the science behind these minimum standards.
Episode #151
Around 30% of all self-storage CMBS properties are on a “watch list” for default, and while the industry has fared well overall, there has been a change in attitude away from a standard practice called “extend and pretend”. In this Self-Storage University podcast we’re going to explore what this lender action is and what it means for the self-storage industry going forward.
Episode #150
Some Self-Storage deals have securitized “conduit” debt on them, which can create complications due to a requirement called “defeasance”. In this Self-Storage University podcast we’re going to review what this is exactly and strategies to minimize or eliminate it.
Episode #149
Forging a good deal in today’s climate requires creativity. And common tools to make the numbers fit – and ensure performance – are “escrows” and “earn - outs”. In this Self-Storage University podcast we’re going to review how to use these concepts when crafting a deal.
Episode #148
Most every self-storage facility as someone who acts as the manager, and their attitude and aggressiveness plays a key part in the asset’s success or failure. In this Self-Storage University podcast we’re going to review some concrete methods to motivate your manager to maximize your net income.

Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
