Today, we’re continuing our countdown to the new year by looking back at some of the best episodes from the Best Ever Show in 2023. We’ve pulled the best clips from some of this year’s best episodes that featured the best self-storage investing advice ever. In this episode, we’ll hear from Connor Gross, Faraz Hemani, Travis Baucom, AJ Osborne, and the Sultan of Storage himself, Baird Kleinsmith. You can find links to each of their episodes in the show notes.

Connor discussed why he chose self-storage over other asset classes, including how he 3X’d the NOI on his very first deal. Meanwhile, Faraz provides tips on how to find — and talk to — the right sellers in a competitive market, Travis takes us through his due diligence process, and AJ explains his firm’s buying strategy in 2023, including how he accounts for the threat of new construction disrupting the supply and demand balance in a particular market. Baird wraps it up by explaining why he targets “crappy” self-storage facilities, his secrets to quickly scaling to eight facilities, and the hardest lessons he’s learned along the way.
