Sector Series: Self-Storage in Practice What Experience Teaches When the "Easy" Phase Ends
Thu Feb 05 2026
Following our deep dive into industry data, we’re shifting gears from the "what" to the "how." In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on over two decades of hands-on experience to explore what happens when the pandemic-induced "demand shock" fades and storage starts behaving like a normal business again.
If you’ve noticed that occupancy feels more "fragile," or that inquiries require a bit more effort than they did two years ago, you aren't alone. We are moving from a market that smoothed over weak decisions to one that demands excellence in the fundamentals.

Learn how the market works and the ways in which it differs from Residential property so you can avoid the pitfalls and learn how to create successful deals.https://commercialpropertyinvestor.co.uk/2-day-introduction
