On today’s show we are talking about how to set up the accounting for a construction project. There is a right way and a wrong way to do it. But first.
Send an email to podcast@victorjm.com if you’d like to learn more about the Y Street Capital Storage Fund. Put the word storage in the subject line.
If you’ve been looking for a thoughtful way to invest in storage, the Y Street Capital Storage Fund may be worth your attention. The Fund is currently invested in four storage assets, with additional growth planned for 2026.
What I like about self-storage is its simplicity as a business and its resilience across a range of market conditions. When it’s operated with discipline, there is real potential to create value through better management, improved occupancy, and steady revenue growth.
For investors who want exposure to the sector without the concentration risk of a single asset, this Fund offers a more diversified approach.
This announcement is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy securities. Any investment will be made only through the Fund’s offering documents, and only by verified accredited investors residing in the United States, in compliance with applicable securities laws.

On today’s show, we’re talking about something that sounds administrative on the surface, but in reality can make or break the financial control of a construction project. That is, how you choose your budget categories.
Most people think of a budget as a list of costs. Land, permits, concrete, framing, electrical, plumbing, finishes, done. But that’s not how a construction project behaves in real life. A construction budget is not simply a cost estimate. It is a control system. It is the framework that ties together invoicing, payment applications, loan draw requests, your banking records, your accounting system, and ultimately your reporting to investors and lenders.
If you choose your budget categories intelligently, reconciling all of that can be relatively straightforward. If you choose poorly, the administrative effort multiplies. Not a little, a lot.
