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.

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.
