What if the most stable investment opportunity wasn’t found in stocks or multifamily housing—but in self-storage? In this episode of Legacy Leaders, Stan and Katie Beth sit down with Guy Varble, co-founder of the Momentum Wealth Fund and expert in self-storage investing. Together, they explore why self-storage is one of the most risk-mitigated and scalable real estate asset classes, sharing valuable insights and practical tips for listeners. Guy draws from his extensive background in economics, banking, and real estate to discuss market trends, investment structures, and the surprising behavioral patterns of storage users, offering actionable advice for real estate investors, financial professionals, and anyone exploring passive income opportunities. This episode is a must-listen for investors seeking stable returns and smart diversification strategies, providing both knowledge and tools to navigate this often-overlooked sector.   Key Takeaways: ● 🧠 Self-Storage Fundamentals: Learn why self-storage performs well in both economic downturns and booms. ● 🏗️ Building vs. Buying: Understand the differences between acquiring older facilities and developing new, Class A properties. ● 📍 Location, Location, Location: Discover how saturation is measured by hyper-local factors, not national averages. ● 📊 Investor-First Structures: Explore how customizable fund models and investor-aligned returns are central to Momentum’s approach. ● 💸 Tax Efficiency: Get a crash course on how cost segregation and accelerated depreciation can benefit investors. Quotes from Guy Varble: ● "When things go bad, self-storage gets stronger. When things go great, self-storage still thrives." ● "We want to double your money in five years—that’s our simple benchmark." ● "If you're not factoring in risk-adjusted returns, you're just throwing darts and hoping it sticks." 🔗 Conclusion: Self-storage is more than a place to stash stuff—it’s a strategic, recession-resistant investment opportunity. Whether you're a seasoned investor or just exploring real estate, this episode offers valuable direction on building wealth with intention.
