Storage Wins
Alex Pardo
What if you could finally escape the grind, quit your job, and build real wealth?
Not by flipping more houses or managing tenants, but by owning a self-storage business that creates real freedom. Imagine waking up knowing you're in control: your business is running, your income is steady, and your time is finally yours. That's what Storage Wins is all about.
If you're tired of trading dollars for hours, being burnt out from chasing deals that create more work, and are ready for a step-by-step system to buy your first self-storage facility, even if you don't have tons of time, money, or years of experience...this podcast is for you.
Most real estate investors and employees feel stuck. Maybe you're grinding away at a nine-to-five that drains you or hustling in a single-family real estate business that leaves you stressed and overwhelmed. You dream of passive income and cash flow, but every solution you try just adds more chaos to your life. The truth is, you don't need to manage dozens of properties, fix broken toilets, or put up with nightmare tenants. There is a smarter, more scalable way.
The problem isn't that self-storage is out of reach. Most people are overwhelmed by conflicting advice, all the moving pieces, and the myth that you need a ton of money or years of experience to get started. You end up overthinking, burning out, or worst of all, doing nothing and watching your dreams slip away. Other people are making it work and you wonder, why not me? What am I missing?
The answer is clarity, a proven plan, and a supportive community.
Imagine this: You have a clear roadmap to buy your first self-storage facility in the next six to twelve months, even if you've never done a real estate deal before. You know what to look for, how to find off-market deals, raise capital, and structure acquisitions that build wealth. You're part of a group that values simplicity, automation, and systems that make business more profitable. You are making progress, building cash flow, and finally owning your time.
Hosted by Alex Pardo, real estate investor, coach, and former host of The Flip Empire Show, Storage Wins is your weekly guide to building a self-storage business that serves your life. Each episode brings you practical insights from Alex and top experts, as well as real stories from students and everyday investors. We go deep on what works: choosing the right market, negotiating deals, automating operations, avoiding rookie mistakes, and scaling up for real financial freedom.
This show is about reclaiming your time and building a business that works for you. If you're sick of the rat race, exhausted by the endless hustle, and are ready to create freedom, wealth, and legacy, this is your show. You don't have to sacrifice your family, faith, or sanity to succeed. You just need a plan, one good deal, and the belief that freedom is closer than you think.

EP309: Making The Dispositions Department More Effective By Cleaning Up Broken Processes
Alex and his team realized that their dispositions department could use a more streamlined and cleaner process. With so much focus on marketing and closing deals, dispositions can get pushed to the side but if you're not careful, you can end up leaving money on the table. Alex realized this recently where he ended up losing about $3-4K on a deal! Find out how to avoid this problem in today's episode! Key Takeaways: Alex and his family are on a seven-day cruise right now! How can you make your dispositions process more effective? You can be leaving $$$ on the table by not trying to optimize your dispositions department. Alex lost about $3-4K by not getting a deal in front of their own buyers. Buyers come and go! So, how can you cultivate meaningful relationships with your VIP buyers? Alex has learned that they do not verbally commit anymore. The strongest commitment is a wire transfer! Alex is thinking about changing up his process and how he sets up his deals with buyers. He wants to offer a 'buy it now' price. Remember to give your buyers a deadline, so that you don't end up waiting all week for it. Be clear and set the expectations upfront with your buyers. Most of Alex's deals are gone within 48 hours and you want to train your buyers to act quickly. Keep in mind, agents might also have buyers that will pay more than what you're asking. Have questions? Connect with Alex! Alex is looking for a new team member to fill the dispositions role! In South Florida? Reach out. Thank you so much for supporting the show.

Lindsey Kovach and Alycia Turley are the Co-Founders at The LENN Foundation, a nonprofit helping families who have children with cerebral palsy. They provide financial relief towards children's unmet medical needs that are not covered by health insurance. Lindsey and Alycia share impactful stories to Alex, Erik Stark and Dave Payerchin on how their foundation makes a difference. Key Takeaways: When Alex first discovered The Lenn Foundation, he felt so much empathy for the families who had children with cerebral palsy. Alex Pardo, Erik Stark, Dave Payerchin, & The Collective Genius have teamed up with The Lenn Foundation today! How did Lindsey and Alycia get involved with The Lenn Foundation? Insurance companies simply do not cover the majority of cerebral palsy expenses and therapies. What do the therapies cost and what kind of impact do they have on the children? What happens when a child isn't able to go to therapy? Therapy gives these children so much confidence to try new things and to overcome obstacles. What does cerebral palsy do to a child? As a parent, how does cerebral palsy affect Alycia's day-to-day life? Who are these people? They're our neighbors. They're part of our community! Alex shares why he feels guilty. Dave is a wholesale investor and he is sending 100% of the proceeds from his coaching program to The LENN Foundation. Do you have $100, $500, $1,000+ to donate? Dave has some gifts for you.

EP308: Angie Sanchez Delivers Massive Value on How You Can Become a Better Communicator, & Build Deeper Relationships Through Empathy
Angie Sanchez is an Integrated Nutrition Health Coach. This is going to be a slightly different episode, because Angie is not in the real estate space, but works with a lot of people who are. She talks about her four life pillars and how to bring each of these different aspects into alignment so that you can start feeling better and living better as well as how you can practice empathy with yourself and others. Faced with her own set of health challenges in her early 20s, Angie understands all too well that you truly have nothing if you don't have your health! Key Takeaways: This is a masterclass all about communication and connecting with people. Who is Angie and how did she get started? Angie's purpose and objective (both personal and professional) is to leave others feeling better than when they first arrived to see Angie. When you're authentic, the situations that are simply not right for you will naturally fall off your radar! How does Angie define EQ? If you're able to practice empathy at a high level, you have a high EQ. How do you practice empathy? Public speaking used to be Angie's biggest fear, but by changing her perspective, she has since been able to get over that. What kinds of clients does Angie work with? If you're too general in your message, you will have a harder time working with the right person. What makes you unique, different, special? Angie shares some life audit recommendations to help you gain perspective and see where you're lacking in your life. Don't compare yourself to another person. Do what's right for you. Work on a rhythm that's right for you. What does Angie's morning routine look like? Angie shares her thoughts on intermittent fasting. Knowing what Angie knows now, what would Angie tell her 20-25-year-old self?

Alex shares some growing pains he's been experiencing in the business lately. He has on-boarded some new talent as well as shifted some of his team members around so that they're in a more elevated and suited role for their talent and expertise. These adjustments take time, but it's on you, as the leader, to make sure things are running the way they should be. Key Takeaways: Alex now has two team members working leads, one doing inbound lead management and the other doing outbound. What are the responsibilities of each person? Big mistake Alex made was having his acquisition manager take calls live. He explains why! Your acquisition manager needs to be focused and taking calls live ends up draining them. Alex also recently implemented a lead rating system. The team now understands what a cold lead is vs. a hot lead. When you follow up with sellers, are you delivering value? The opportunity costs are just too great if you can't follow up on your leads properly! Like this podcast? Please share it with someone who might like this!

EP304: Christina Krause Drops Gems on Marketing, Data Analytics, and What You Can Ethically Steal from the "Big Boys"
This is Christina Krause's second guest appearance and she's back dropping some serious wisdom. She is the Owner of PostImpact and an investor herself. What makes Christina so valuable to her real estate clients is that she can dive into your numbers, understand what's going on, and make some tweaks, so that you come out on a completely different level from your competition. Get out of your head, focus on your genius zone, and get to work! Key Takeaways: Christina has access to data and info you'd kill for! She's a wizard when it comes to marketing, and data analytics. What trends has Christina been seeing when it comes to marketing? Why are real estate investors so darn lazy when it comes to marketing?! Christina explains what coaches do to take really amazing athletes to the next level. Somebody has to be in the background helping you make little tweaks in the business that end up smashing world records. What stops a great investor from becoming an amazing investor? You have to ask yourself the right types of questions to get you unstuck. There really is no such thing as 'self-made.' People need accountability in their life! Be honest about what you truly struggle with and hire the right people to help you with it. Ask yourself: "What is taking up my mental equity? What is holding me back?" How does someone figure out what their 'genius zone' is? Remember, you have to start now if you want to make a lasting change. Don't spend all your time and effort on an area you're simply not good at. You're wasting time! Note: 93% of the leads you get in follow-up are going to happen at the 30-120 day mark. Tip: Add humanity to create a competitive difference in your company. What makes Christina so valuable to her clients? There has to be a moment in time where you stop everything and go, "Okay. I'm serious about this." Things don't 'just happen' to the big guys. They worked hard to get to where they are today. It wasn't an overnight success.

EP302: How This 27-Year-Old Wholesales 50 Deals a Year in Multiple Markets, and Why He Traded his Single-Family Rentals for Self-Storage Facilities
Fernando Angelucci got started in wholesaling when he was 22 years old. Five years later, he has his own wholesale business, single-family rentals, and even self-storage facilities. Fernando takes the abundance mindset to the next level and gives his referral partners 50% of the profits after each closing. Fernando has a ton of amazing and practical strategies to share! Find out how he has made such progress over the last few years on this week's show. Key Takeaways: Wholesaling is great, but it can be a transactional business. Fernando has a couple of business models that he uses to build wealth. Fernando has been interested in real estate since he was 16 years old. So many people live the life that someone else wanted them to live. What advice does Fernando have for those who aren't happy with their current job? How did Fernando bridge the gap from wholesaling to single-family rentals? On average, Fernando was making around $5K in his wholesale deals and his investors were making $25-40K and on the rentals, they were pulling in 8-12% cap rates yearly. Fernando branched out from Des Moines to Indianapolis and Chicago. How did Fernando scale so quickly out of state? Fernando would provide his sellers with multiple option offers that would best suit their needs. He'd do cash offer, short-term seller finance, and a long-term seller finance offer. How did Fernando get involved in self-storage? Lenders love self-storage. They love it! Self-storage has the lowest default rates compared to any other asset class. Fernando shares what his first self-storage experience was like. Your highest expense will be property taxes. Close to 30% of Fernando's wholesale deals are referral deals.
