    Hi All!

    i have come across an area that seems to lack availability of self storage (general and business storage- garage size storage units).

    I am currently exploring the idea to buy some industrial land and build a large shed with storage units that would be managed by a RE agent. (Not run as a business).

    Has anyone done this? Would you buy the land or just rent it?

    Do you know who to enquire with for the building of such sheds? Steel companies?

    Do you know a way of how i could research the “real” need for this storage? (I assume there is a need because we could not find any available storage when we wanted to store tools there after doing a renovation in the area). Would you advertise storage in a paper and track the number of enquiries? Any other ideas?

    I have just started researching the feasibility of this idea and would greatly appreciate any comments…

    Thanks guys!

    Bec

    i worked at an agency that managed a storage complex in country vic. lots of demand and the vacancy was very low.
