Most investors chase deals on LoopNet or wait for brokers to call them back. The problem? By the time you see the listing, you're already too late. The best storage deals never hit the market, they're sitting with owners who don't even realize they're ready to sell.

In this episode, Alex Pardo continues his 6-part series on the 16 proven methods for finding off-market storage deals. This is Part 3, where he reveals three of his most powerful strategies: direct mail that actually works, raising relationship capital, and networking your way into deals most people never hear about. These aren't gimmicks, they're repeatable systems that have created six- and seven-figure opportunities for Alex and his students. Want to shortcut your learning curve?

You'll Learn How To:

• Run direct mail campaigns that owners actually respond to
• Build relationship capital so deals naturally flow your way
• Turn casual conversations into off-market opportunities
• Use networking groups and associations to position yourself as the go-to storage buyer
• Create a follow-up system that keeps you top of mind with motivated sellers
