Book excerpt: Flan Parker has always had an inquisitive mind, searching for what’s hidden below the surface and behind the door. Her curious nature and enthusiastic probing have translated into a thriving resale business in the university housing complex where she lives with her husband and two young children. Flan’s venture helps pay the bills while her husband works on his dissertation, work that lately seems to involve more loafing on the sofa watching soap operas than reading or writing. The secret of her enterprising success: unique and everyday treasures bought from the auctions of forgotten and abandoned storage units. When Flan secures the winning bid on a box filled only with an address and a note bearing the word “yes,” she sets out to discover the source of this mysterious message and its meaning. Armed with a well-worn copy of Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass that she turns to for guidance and solace, Flan becomes determined to find the “yes” in her own life. This search inward only strengthens her desire to unearth the hidden stories of those around her–in particular, her burqa-clad Afghan neighbor. Flan’s interest in this intriguing and secretive woman, however, comes at a formidable price for Flan and her family. Set during the year following the September 11 attacks, Self Storage explores the raw insecurities of a changed society. With lush writing, great humor, and a genuine heart, Gayle Brandeis takes a peek into the souls of a woman and a community–and reveals that it is not our differences that drive us apart but our willful concealment of the qualities that connect us.

This is especially the case when self-storage is selling for a premium. It is daunting competing for facilities with large, well funded operators and REITS.This book will show you the three step process to successfully purchase self-storage today, even in large markets where the REITS are active, and provide all the resources you will need. By the end of this tutorial you will possess the essential tools to effectively find, analyze risk, and compete with the larger players. You will not only have the knowledge to BUY facilities, but BUY them in a way that fulfills your pre-determined parameters and business plan. Mark Helm, CCIM explains in detail how he did just that, and with very limited startup funds. As the economy improves and more people use self-storage, it is going to be more important than ever to know how to effectively compete with large well funded operators in purchasing facilities.

She doesn’t feel understood by her mother, who grew up in a different land. She doesn’t feel accepted in her suburban town; yet somehow, she isn't different enough to belong elsewhere. Her best friend, Haitham, is the only person with whom she can truly be herself. Until she can't, and suddenly her only refuge is gone. As the ground is pulled out from under her, Nima must grapple with the phantom of a life not chosen—the name her parents meant to give her at birth—Yasmeen. But that other name, that other girl, might be more real than Nima knows. And the life Nima wishes were someone else's. . . is one she will need to fight for with a fierceness she never knew she possessed.

This book was released on 2011-09-19 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A hidden history of the South emerges when a worldly teacher leads Threestep, GA, to reinvent itself, setting in motion events that lead to triumph and tragedy for the black teenager who happens to be the smartest person in Piedmont County, Georgia, in 1938–39. As an epigraph from The Souls of Black Folk by W. E. B. Du Bois reminds us at the start of this novel, "Throughout history, the powers of single black men flash here and there like falling stars, and die sometimes before the world has rightly gauged their brightness." Protagonist Theo Boykin is a genius, an artist, an inventor, a Leonardo DaVinci–type, whose talents are sought after by local blacks and whites alike, but even this is not enough to save him. He falls victim to "the tragedy of ignorance and the damage caused by fear," in the words of poet Rita Dove—the first African American to serve as U.S. Poet Laureate and a member of the jury that conferred on The Cailiffs of Baghdad, Georgia the 2011 Anisfield-Wolf Award for books that "make a significant contribution to our understanding of racism and our appreciation for the diversity of human cultures." You won't forget Theo Boykin, nor will you forget his friends the Cailiffs, especially Gladys, who tells this story with love and bewilderment, and the teacher, Miss Spivey, who changes all their lives.

As he navigates friendships, deals with bullies, and spends time with Elias (a boy he can't stop thinking about), he finds himself on a path of self-discovery and acceptance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Buying and selling self-storage can be a win-win-win prospect for all parties. Self-storage has become a household name in the past few years, not only on TV and to the general American public, but to Wall Street and private investors throughout the United States and abroad. This boom in demand for self-storage ownership has erupted the transactional volume--with facilities being sold for record prices and in record time. As such, we've also seen a development boom over the past few years, with investors trying to ride the storage wave and enjoy the wonderful profits that self-storage has historically delivered time and time again. Navigating this new landscape in the industry can be challenging, to say the least. With the entrance of a plethora of new capital and new competition comes a very sophisticated market with highly educated investors and big firms going head to head with the single owner-operators throughout the United States. This competitive environment and massive demand for self-storage creates an optimal sellers' market, one that can be extremely profitable with the right help. The Sexy Side Of Self-Storage was written to help any facility owner in the self-storage industry--but particularly the single owner-operator--maximize the value of their self-storage investment at sale.
