Essentials vs. Extras: Setting the Right Scope on Your Next Self-Storage Build 
When it comes to building self-storage facilities, the devil's in the details—and those details are in the scope. In this no-nonsense session, our speaker partners with a trusted general contractor to guide you through reading your construction bid, understanding what you're purchasing, and avoiding costly surprises. Whether you're new to the industry or scaling a portfolio, this session provides the clarity and confidence needed to manage your build from start to finish.

You’ll learn:

  • How to break down the scope of work, so you know what’s included—and what isn’t 
  • What happens once the construction contract is signed and how to stay ahead of the build process 
  • Common areas in which details fall through the cracks between designers and developers and trades 
  • How to keep everyone aligned when plans shift or field conditions change 
  • Real-world examples of project missteps and recoveries, and what successful builders always do early in the construction process
