Episode Details

I sit down with Scott Zucker, a partner at Weissmann Zucker Euster + Oblinger, P.C. and a literal Hall of Fame fixture in the storage world . Scott has spent nearly four decades acting as a "counselor and defender" for storage operators, helping define the legal statutes that govern how we do business today .

We tackle the heavy-hitting issues currently keeping owners up at night. From the New York City licensing laws and the high-profile Extra Space lawsuit to the "transparency" requirements of California's SB-709, Scott provides the essential legal context needed to navigate an increasingly regulated industry . We also discuss why the "rising tide raises all boats" mentality of the storage industry has made it the most cooperative vertical in real estate .
