Education is key. BP podcasts, Rich Dad Poor Dad, Think & Grow Rich, The Richest Man in Babylon are all great reads.

I've had good luck with Cozy.co , I believe Zillow might offer something as well.

I've never heard of someone building a self storage facility out of shipping containers. Very intriguing! Why shipping containers? Is there a major cost advantage?

This sounds like a pretty complicated situation. I would definitely talk to your attorney and ask him all these questions, and don't rush into something like this. Take your time and understand what is going on and what the potential ramifications are if everything that can go wrong, were to go wrong. Then evaluate the risk and consider whether it is wise to proceed. 

Have you worked with the wholesaler before?

One idea: your association and/or managing broker should be able to point you in the right direction :)

Check legality first, preferably with an attorney. Some states require you to have an agent's license. Keep educating yourself, there are tons of articles and forum posts here to help you along the way. Welcome to BP!
