The 5% Management Fee Myth in Storage Investing
Shownotes
Is the 5% management fee in your broker's offering memorandum wrecking your underwriting? On a facility doing $100,000 a year, that line item works out to about $400 a month, and no credible operator will run your phones, pricing, collections, and marketing for that.
Joe Downs pulls back the curtain on third-party management with Adam Wagner, President and Managing Partner of Anytime Storage Property Management.
Following a merger with The Storage Manager, Adam's top 50 firm now runs more than 90 facilities 100% remotely, including three of Joe's boat and RV storage properties.
Adam breaks down what 5% really covers, why lenders trust 3PM numbers more than owner figures, how AI sets weekly pricing with a human approving every move, and when a deal is simply too small to manage.
Underwriting a deal right now? Listen before your money goes hard.
