Take a Master Class from three of the most experienced minds in Small Bay Flex.

from Storage Unlocked

I am your host, Thaddeus Campbell, and in this episode of Storage Unlocked, I am joined by a "superhero lineup": Barry Sherman (S3 Partners), Wayne Woolsey (Kiwi II Steel), and Cody Payne (Flex Parks USA). We pull back the curtain on an asset class that is currently outperforming storage in development returns and attracting massive attention from both private equity and local entrepreneurs . In this episode, we cover: The "Adolescent" Asset Class: Why Small Bay Flex has a "long way to go" and how to capitalize on the current supply-demand imbalance . Tenant Diversification: How "Answer Engine Optimization" and social media have allowed retail-style tenants to move into cheaper flex space . Critical Design Choices: Why unit flexibility and separation of utilities are vital for re-tenanting without blowing your budget on TI . The Cost of Verticality: Understanding how wind loads and larger door guides add to your steel costs as you grow from 16ft to 20ft clear height . Site Selection Savvy: Why you should look for "roofs and red dirt"—targeting sites across from HOA communities with restrictive parking rules . Tune in to find out why the "Speedboat" flexibility of Small Bay Flex is making it the smartest play in the 2026 commercial real estate market.
