Selfstorageincome Reviews 

Self Storage Income played a huge role in helping me acquire my first facility with no prior storage experience. The content is practical and directly applicable to real deals, while the staff is incredible and extremely responsive. From underwriting to operations to understanding the market, the resources gave me the confidence to pull the trigger on a property I might have otherwise passed on. If you’re serious about getting into self storage ownership, this is the right place to start.

We’ve been members of Self Storage Income’s Inner Circle for almost five years, and we just closed on our third self-storage acquisition. Over the years, one of the things I’ve come to value most about the Inner Circle is the network and the willingness of the team to share their resources and relationships with members.

In fact, our first self-storage deal came through a connection we made within the Inner Circle. Another member ultimately wholesaled the property to us, which became our first facility.

Our third and most recent acquisition really showed us the value of the network again. The attorney we originally hired turned out not to be a good fit for the transaction, and we suddenly needed to find a new attorney very quickly. We were at a point where delays in getting the documents signed could have caused us to lose the deal. We reached out to the Inner Circle and within a day or two were connected with a trusted self-storage attorney. He not only helped us keep the transaction moving, but has been tremendously helpful navigating the many issues that have come up throughout the deal. We simply would not have found him without the Inner Circle.

This was also the first acquisition where we needed to find a new lender ourselves. Through the Inner Circle, we were connected with a loan brokerage team that is well respected in the self-storage community. They helped us navigate the financing process and ultimately secure a loan with terms we were very happy with.

Beyond those connections, we’ve used the Inner Circle’s feasibility studies to give us greater confidence when evaluating acquisitions, and the team has always been extremely responsive whenever I have questions. If they have a resource or relationship that could help a member, they are genuinely willing to share it.

After almost five years, I feel much more confident as a self-storage investor knowing that I have a community of experienced people and trusted resources to turn to when challenges come up. For us, the Inner Circle has played a meaningful role not just in learning the business, but in actually finding, financing, and closing deals.

My company and I could not have accomplished acquiring 2 facilities in year 1 without the guidance of AJ, Conner, George, Sarah and the rest of the team. We love going to the conferences and getting to hear seminars from the team and networking with the community. If you are looking to get started in Self Storage, there is not a better group to be a part of.

Very good learning experience with real-world examples, now integrating a potential lending option in the conversation.

I joined the Inner Circle a year ago with no experience in real estate investing or self storage in general. Today I own one facility and we are soon to acquire the next one.

SSI gave me all the resources, from the most basic ones to the most advanced on how to find deals, underwrite and most importantly; successfully close and operate one. It has been great to not only learn from one of the best operators out there, but also I got to meet a lot of people in the self storage world.

SSI is the way to go if you're looking to own a self storage facility whilst getting access to a whole community.

Working with AJ and his team has been a great experience. They're incredibly knowledgeable, and they've helped me understand how the self storage industry actually works and how to invest in it. The education side alone is packed with information, and everyone on the team is genuinely helpful when it comes to answering questions and making sure I'm making progress.

I came into this knowing absolutely nothing about self storage as an asset class. Now I feel confident that this is what I want to invest in, and I'm actively searching for our first property. More than anything, I know I have a team around me that can help me avoid expensive mistakes and coach me through the situations that inevitably come up.

AJ & his team are truly elite operators and mentors. I highly recommend working with these guys if you're serious about building a self storage portfolio!!

SSI has been an essential part of my journey into the self-storage business. The amount of education, resources, and support available is incredible.
As a member of the Inner Circle, I've gained the confidence and knowledge to successfully purchase my second self-storage facility, and I'm currently in the process of acquiring my third. More importantly, SSI has helped me think like an owner and operator, not just an investor.
One of the biggest advantages of SSI is the community and network. The connections to experienced operators, trusted vendors, lenders, software providers, and industry experts are invaluable. Instead of spending months trying to figure out who to trust, you're plugged into a network of proven resources that can help you move faster and avoid costly mistakes.
If you're looking to build your own brand, the tools, systems, and guidance are there. If you'd rather plug into an established brand and leverage an existing platform, that's available as well. SSI gives you the flexibility to choose the path that best fits your goals.
What I appreciate most is that the education is rooted in real-world experience. Being able to learn from successful operators while simultaneously applying those lessons to my own acquisitions has dramatically accelerated my growth.
I have ambitious plans to continue scaling my self-storage portfolio, and I can honestly say that SSI has played a significant role in helping me fast-track that journey. If you're serious about building a self-storage business, I highly recommend becoming part of the SSI community.

The resources I've had access to through Self Storage Income have been instrumental in building and growing our self storage business. Great information for beginners and those looking to scale their current storage business.

We came into Inner Circle this past February with no self-storage experience whatsoever. We closed our first storage deal in May. From zero to closed in roughly three months. But the bigger win isn’t the single deal — it is that we are now developing a repeatable system operations and acquisition system. We are not guessing anymore. We have a process for sourcing, underwriting, and negotiating that we will carry into every deal going forward. The plan from here is to keep moving capital out of residential and into storage, and now we have both the tools and the network to do it.

SSI has been absolutely amazing in helping my business partner and I learn the ins and outs of storage. They make it easy for beginners to grasp the concepts and then apply them to doing real deals. We went from knowing nothing about storage, to getting under contract on our first facility within a few months.

To top it off everyone we have worked and talked with are genuinely good people and want nothing more than to see you succeed.

This has been a very knowledgeable community and a great resource for learning the self storage business and connecting with others doing the same

This community changed the trajectory of my real estate journey! I have been a residential real estate investor since 2014, but became interested in commercial real estate a couple years ago. I began that journey by scouring YouTube, but I never could find the level of detail I was looking for in any of the educational material. Fast forwarding a couple years, I joined SSI after watching several of AJ’s YouTubes. I expected to gain knowledge with SSI, but I grossly underestimated the networking that also comes with this community of like-minded individuals. I also began to think bigger and am proud to say I closed a $2.4m self storage deal via a syndication this past November. That size of deal and forming a syndication was nowhere on my radar before joining Self Storage Income. The network, tools, and personal development I have gained from SSI have been invaluable! Anyone that is serious about getting into the self-storage industry would be well-served by joining.
