Research Resources and Self Storage

[John R.]

Recently my wife and I have decided to begin investing in real estate. We are both educated individuals and have a desire to proceed in this endeavor with as much information and knowledge as possible. Through our research so far we have been drawn towards self storage. We have attended Scott Meyers seminar and garnered a great deal of information about this topic. However, I would like to find more resources concerning not only self storage but general info concerning investing in real estate topics such as funding, taxes, and strategies about investing. Any suggestions for resources would be appreciated.

Hello and welcome!  

You just posted this message in one of the best online resources available....BiggerPockets.com. Spend some time searching the forums, listening to podcasts and gleaming information from the experts on here.  The keyword alert feature is nice for getting information/discussions about specific topics sent to your account for your review.  

I have a little blog on here called All Things Self Storage that you might want to take a quick look at.  It is pretty basic and you may find much of it to be similar to what you learned at Scott Meyers seminar as I used his courses to get started in SS as well.  

I think you will find folks on here are very willing to share what they know but your response rate will always be better if you can present as specific a questions as possible.  

All the Best,

Mike
