Making Big Profits in Self-Storage Conversions

Don't miss this months Meetup as we have our guests flying in all the way from Chicago to present to our group on how they are making big profits by changing the use of old warehouses. First ever in person presentation on this topic in the SF Bay Area as far as we could find!

Because chances are you know lots of people who invest in apartments or flips, and no wonder, both are very popular and therefore highly competitive investment classes... That is why, this month we are going to talk about something different: Self Storage Conversions!

Self Storage is an often overlooked real estate investment "niche" by itself and Self Storage Conversions are a niche within that niche. And, we are proud to be the first bay area meetup to have an in person presentation on this very lucrative investment class!

As you probably know we are active self storage investors ourselves, and this month we have our Chicago based business partners Scott Krone & Martin Taradejna flying in to present to the group on how they are creating massive value for their investors and themselves in the profitable niche of self storage conversions.

During the presentation they will cover how they find, analyze and underwrite their projects, why competition is relatively low - and why the value add is so high!
