@John Kim if all your competitors are, yes it’s a no-brainer. Management company should give you an anticipation for what to expect commission wise.

@Daniel Brown Thanks for the kind words, appreciate that. 

Honestly it depends on if I think they can be reasoned with or their level of motivation. I have one where I offered to split the cost of a real appraisal if he'd agree to sell at the price it comes back at if it's within the ballpark...hasn't taken me up on it so we will see.

@Daniel Brown doubt you can find a middle ground when you are that far apart.

I’d suggest just saying you’re having a hard time getting close to that number and say you’d be willing to pay close to what an experienced self-storage appraiser would value it at.

Sign up at storeagetreasures and pay for the auction help for your first few.

As in using the call center? That's fine, but that's only half of it. You'll need to find some boots on the ground too. 

@Prasad J. No one worth their salt as a management company will manage something that small.

I would encourage you to not use a local residential property management company either as it’s an entirely different business.

@Ashley Zhang really difficult to answer without more info that you may not want to share on a public forum haha...

-how are rates compared to local competition?

-any CapEx needed?

-how will you manage it?

-what’s physical and economic occupancy?

-what’s the value-add?

All things to consider.

@Henry Clark send me the info on the ‘cherry’ if you have no interest. These are interesting, thanks for typing them out.

@Kaelyn Motzel Noke isn’t a PM System. It integrates with one to allow touchless access to gate and units if you desire.

@Henry Clark Look up Contractors Garage in KC. Kevin has developed quite a few of these, probably be a good phone call to have.
