EPISODE 3:

The hottest live deals in self-storage meet a room full of investors with real capital to deploy.

Every episode of The Smartest Hour, we fill the room with serious self-storage investors and operators with real buy boxes and deals in motion.

For Episode 3, we’re putting that room to work. We’ve invited the most active brokers in the country to bring their live listings to the table. Noah will analyze each deal on air using real TractIQ market data, and help investors evaluate whether each one fits their buy box, in real time.

If you’re a buyer, this is deal flow with context, not just an OM, but a live breakdown of why the numbers work (or don’t).

  • Market analysis for the reviewed active listings
