Use your Self Directed IRA to Buy A Storage Facility
Daniel Cordoba
If you are looking for a stable investment that does not require too much oversight in which to place some of your IRA's funds, a storage facility can be a great option. Because there are some recurring expenses however (like the electric bill and labor costs), a self-directed IRA is usually preferable for this type of investment. If you have to pay custodial fees every time your IRA pays the electric bill, your profit margin can decrease significantly.

Though not as glamorous as investing in a tropical resort hotel, storage facilities can return strong profits on smaller initial investments. Storage properties benefit from a relatively high demand in urban centers and in outlying metropolitan areas where competition may not be as great. A nearly unavoidable fact of life is that as families grow and as individuals start to make more money, their volume of possessions increases while their available storage space decreases.
