โ€‹Description:

โ€‹Contractors, landscapers, and tradespeople keep America runningโ€”but their trucks, tools, and materials are scattered across driveways, chain-link lots, and self-storage units never designed for commercial use. The result: insecure, inefficient, and costly storage.

โ€‹Join us for a 60-minute deep dive with Meg Epstein (CA South's CEO), Khyl Powell (CA South's Principal Advisor, Dakota Brasher (McGraw Properties) and Thesis Driven to unpack the opportunity, walk through the Tulsa flagship project, and explore how outdoor contractor yards could become the โ€œPublic Storageโ€ of the next generation.

โ€‹Backed by $1B+ of development experience, CA South has partnered with White Label Storage and Legacy Commercial Advisors to scale this overlooked sector. The model is simple but powerful: low-capex builds, standardized ops, and flexible leases for mission-critical tenants. Like self-storage 40 years ago, this is a mom-and-pop industry ready for institutionalization.

โ€‹In this session, Brad & Paul of Thesis Driven will join Meg Epstein, CEO of CA South, to dive into the contractor yard model, walk through their project pipeline, and explore how secured outdoor storage may evolve into a national platform shaped by strong market tailwinds.


โ€‹In this session, weโ€™ll cover:

  • โ€‹๐Ÿ”‘ Why 33M+ small businesses represent a massive unmet need

  • โ€‹๐Ÿ—๏ธ How CA South builds secure, flexible yards at scale

  • โ€‹๐Ÿ“ˆ The economics: ~$5M sites, 25% IRR targets, ~10% stabilized yield

  • โ€‹๐ŸŒŽ The growth plan: Tulsa and OKC launch sites, 20+ markets ahead

  • โ€‹๐Ÿค Why institutional partners are backing a historically ignored asset class

โ€‹Speakers Include:

  • โ€‹The Team

    • โ€‹Meg Epstein, CA South

    • โ€‹Khyl Powell, CA South

    • โ€‹Dakota Brasher, McGraw Properties

  • โ€‹The "Institutional Investors"
