In this YouTube short, Speaker B promotes a cash‑focused real‑estate opportunity that leverages modular storage containers as portable, on‑demand units. He emphasizes the profitability of vacant property when repurposed for storage, while Speaker A raises practical concerns about whether the containers will be protected from Arizona’s extreme heat, questioning if they will be left uncovered and exposed.
Are you getting deals like this?
Or do you see the cash? And that's what I was— that's what I went out there to do, is help you guys see dollars. Aside from adjusting my attitude, does anybody else see the value on vacant property like that? Oh, 100%.
With the containers, would they be covered? Just because I know the Arizona heat would be a pretty big factor, or would they just be sitting out there? It would just be uncovered and just let the heat get to them.
Yeah. So the, the, the seed containers we'd put out there would be basically in a set up in a way where there would be stack, right? And so people that would want an environmentally controlled container storage, we could certainly add that to it for sure. Yeah, there's not a— it's not difficult to provide that. The selling point would be that it's close to where they live and they could just hit on an app, hey, I want to come get my stuff, and then that would trigger our equipment to go out and pull their container and have that ready. Concierge style. So But the opportunity to build a, a traditional storage place is still there as well. It's just that I believe we're going to move into more of a transient society where people are not going to stay for longer than 6 to 6 months to like 6 years is going to be equivalent to the 30-year mortgage. Like if you stay at a, if you stay at a place in, especially in like Tempe right there where we were, where they were at, if you stay in one of those high-rises for more than 6 years, that's equivalent to the 30-year mortgage in my opinion. People don't typically stay in locations longer than 2 years. So they move in, they're there for 6 months, maybe a year, and then they're out. And then your average is 2 to 3 years. And then, but people will buy them, they'll buy them, and then what they do is they're there for a year, maybe 2, and then they're out and they rent it out. They, they lease it to somebody else. And so because the people that buy a place like in Tempe, they buy it for the newness and, and the brand newness is what they buy it for. So, so yeah, I really think that as far as storage facilities go, they're going to go over to a modular model where the 20-foot, 30-foot, even the 10-foot containers are going to be what people buy. And you buy your container and you have that place that you store it like a portable, just like a portable garage. So I think that's, that's more on the horizon than what we're even prepared for, logistically speaking.
