Storage Wins EP25: The Massive Deals You're Missing Out On Because Your Criteria Is Too Strict
What if the deal that could change your entire storage investing journey isn’t even on your radar right now? Too many investors cling so tightly to their buy box that they end up missing incredible opportunities. The truth is, the buy box should guide your focus — not fence you in. Growth happens when you stay open, ask better questions, and take imperfect action.
In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo challenges the way investors think about their buying criteria. He shares how one student’s simple question inside the Storage Wins community sparked a deep conversation about what it really means to stay flexible and focused. Alex reveals why the “perfect” deal doesn’t exist, how to turn smaller or unconventional opportunities into stepping stones, and how your buy box should evolve as you grow. Whether you’re buying, wholesaling, or building relationships with brokers, this episode will change how you evaluate and pursue deals forever.
You’ll Learn How To:
- Use your buy box to stay focused and clear on the right deals
- Spot value in smaller opportunities that others overlook
- Build real confidence through consistent, imperfect action
- Turn every conversation into a chance to grow relationships and deals
- Balance direct-to-owner outreach with strong broker connections

Every conversation, every call, and every offer is a rep that builds your confidence and brings you closer to your first or next deal. If you’ve been overanalyzing, waiting for the stars to align, or saying no to good deals because they don’t check every box, this episode is your wake-up call. The smartest investors aren’t the ones with all the answers, they’re the ones who keep showing up, asking better questions, and taking action.
