Hey @Envision, I was just reading this forum and I wanted to say nice job coming so far. But my main question is, your business idea is to buy a bunch of things from houses to storage units and rent them out? If so, I legit had the exact same idea. Except my idea was buy storage units apartments and houses and renovate them to increase monthly rent.
