Tariffs, Trade Areas, and Self-Storage: Lessons From the “Big Short” – Pt. 2

from Creating Wealth Through Self Storage · host Creating Wealth Through Self Storage

Last week we started a conversation about what I’m seeing in the economy, what may be coming next, and how that changes our self-storage strategy, based on research I dug into after hearing Michael Litt speak. As a CCIM in commercial real estate, our state chapter hosted Litt on “The Big Short.” If you remember the 2015 movie by the same name, it dramatized (and abbreviated) what his hedge fund did during the 2008 recession. Last Week’s Episode. https://youtu.be/QAMZsyZCPx0 This week we will look at the impact of the tax bill, good and bad, the impact on the national debt, and how this can affect us as self-storage owners. Finally we will look at what I can see what Litt appears to be hedging his investments. **Online Courses at The Quickstart Academy** https://TheQuickStartAcademy.com/ **Listen on Apple Podcasts** **5 KPIs we measure** https://creatingwealththroughselfstorage.lpages.co/top-5-kpi-ebook/ **My blog** Creating Wealth Through Self Storage **Facebook** https://www.facebook.com/markhelmselfstorage/ **Twitter** Tweets by MarkHelmSelfSt **The Storage World Analyzer** http://storageworldanalyzer.com/ **The QuickStart Academy Store** https://quick-start-academy.myshopify.com
