Ep 67: Scaling Smarter: How Clint Harris Turns Abandoned Buildings into Multi-Million Dollar Assets

from Lightspeed Investing Podcast · host Philip Jayhawk Chan

🎙 Lightspeed Investing Podcast – Episode 67 (Part 2) | Featuring Clint Harris There's a stark difference between buying what looks good on paper—and building lasting value where others see decay. In Part 2 of my conversation with Clint Harris, General Partner at Nomad Capital, we go beyond the surface and into the strategy that's turning abandoned big-box stores, textile mills, and roach-infested warehouses into high-performing self-storage assets. This isn't theory—it's applied investing at scale. Clint outlines the three foundational principles his team uses to de-risk, scale, and consistently outperform in self-storage: 🔹 Why feasibility studies are non-negotiable 🔹 How vertical integration separates survivors from speculators 🔹 The critical importance of planning your exit before you enter We also dig into: — The psychology behind early vs. late-stage capital — Structuring deals to double investor returns—tax-free — Why cap rate projections alone won't protect your downside — And how disciplined execution turned a $1.5M acquisition into a $17M facility He closes with a hard truth most investors need to hear: "Most people are out of wood before they've built a single bridge off the island." 🎧 Watch Episode 67 – Part 2 with Clint Harris on 👉 LinkedIn 📺 Also on YouTube 🤝 Ready to Share Your Story on Lightspeed Investing Podcast? 📅 Schedule your call with our host, Philip: 📞 https://calendly.com/lightspeedinvesting #lightspeedinvesting  #selfstorage  #realestateinvesting  #adaptivereuse  #passiveincome  #verticalintegration  #scale  #investormindset  #podcastdrop  #investwithpurpose  #financialindependence
