    Good morning everyone, 

    I am new to the group so wanted to start by saying hello and am very excited to be a part of the community!  I am new to the self storage industry and am looking for insight into fully automating a facility. From my understand, a manager makes sense for facilities that are larger than 50k but there are potential opportunities for smaller facilities as well.  We are seeing the viability of a fully automated middle market property with out having a manager on site vs just buying a facility with a larger footprint. I appreciate any feedback and look forward to the discussion.

    Hello Stephen,

    there is a big difference between fully automated vs. unmanned property. What exactly are your specific questions on this topic?
