Send us Fan MailWhat if you could cut your project cost in half on day one…before a single tenant moves in? Scott Meyers sits down with developer and investor Chris Koenig to pull back the curtain on one of the most compelling niches within self-storage investing: solar-powered covered RV and boat storage. Chris has built multiple facilities across California, including a 400-unit, 200,000-square-foot Pittsburgh, California project that generates approximately $120,000 in NOI per month, plus an additional $300,000 per month selling power back to PG&E. With $80 million of real estate currently under construction and a bold new venture into private vaults and safe deposit boxes, Chris reveals the dual-revenue model, the tax credit math, the site selection rules investors miss, and why this niche is one of the stickiest asset classes in all of self-storage. If you're looking for self-storage investment strategies that create real arbitrage at the capital stack level, this episode is essential listening right now.
