This episode is packed with a truly shocking stat: the percentage of Americans moving is at its lowest point since 1948. We explore why this is happening and what it means for the self-storage industry, which is deeply tied to the moving process.

We also discuss a few other major topics, including an exclusive clip with Alex Burnham from StorageMart, a deep dive into Warren Buffett's recent investments, and an analysis of homebuilders' desperate attempts to sell their inventory.

In this episode, you'll hear about:

• The historical data showing how much moving has slowed down in the U.S. and its impact on self-storage

• The trend of building smaller homes, which may eventually create more demand for storage .

• The "funky" incentives homebuilders are using to move inventory, and why these are a red flag .
• Exclusive insights from Alex Burnham on his cautious outlook for the market's immediate recovery.
• Why patience is a key virtue in self-storage right now.
• The hosts' upcoming appearances at the SSA's 50th-anniversary event in Las Vegas .
