Hacking Self Storage

Stacy Rossetti owns and operates REI USA and StorageNerds. REI USA is an online education and networking platform that is exactly the tool that she would have wanted when she was getting started, something that aspiring and established investors can turn to, a means to cut your learning curve dramatically. Together with her husband Pete, Stacy currently owns and operates eight storage facilities. And investing in self-storage is their passion and how they have decided to build wealth. It is the best-kept secret in the investing world and she doesn't know why more are not investing in it. In addition to investing in real estate herself, she discovered another passion in her life – coaching and empowering others. Whenever she sees that she has guided someone toward a breakthrough or helped them to transform themselves professionally, she feels deep fulfillment, confident that she's on the right path, and reinvigorated to go out and do even more.
