On our Multi Family and Syndication Monthly Call, Matt Perry began the conversation talking about recent publicity on the self storage space and the accuracy of the publicity and where Scott Myers had a problem with the recent articles. Next, they began to have conversations about trying to raise capital in the current climate that exists and the challenges that have arisen as well as the best practices that people are finding to combat objections and concerns that passive investors are bringing into the marketplace in the context of capital. Finally, they touched on the economic outlook, and the biggest problem being that right now people who are desperate for a deal are keeping prices high, for no other reason other than they just want to do a deal. Specific topics are discussed as well, such as:
