What happens when a Navy vet and a sales pro ditch Wall Street and go all in on self-storage? 🔑

Scott Meyers welcomes back Rod and Christin Blunk, a dynamic husband-and-wife duo who went from 401k failures to self-storage success. 

They share how losing big in the 2008 crash sparked a mission to build real wealth—leading to over 400 real estate transactions and, eventually, a pivot to self-storage. 

From navigating the highs and lows of working together, to building a portfolio of owned and partnered facilities, Rod and Christin offer straight talk on due diligence, market trends, partnerships, and mentoring others in the game.

1:12 How to pivot from traditional investing to self-storage?

14:00 What trends and opportunities are emerging in today’s self-storage market?

19:52 What due diligence mistakes do new self-storage investors make?
