Where are you located?
Big Easy Secure Warehouses is ideally situated along the I-15 corridor, which serves the growing Southern California population. We are located between Interstates 15 and 215, just south of Clinton Keith Road, a main thoroughfare that connects the I-15 and I-215. Our address is 36215 Jana Lane, Wildomar, California.
What communities do you serve?
Our central location ensures convenient access for people across Southern California. Therefore, we expect to attract buyers from Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Diego Counties.
Why should I own instead of renting?
Owning a personal warehouse lets you control the amount you pay for storage instead of being forced to tolerate annual or unplanned rent increases. And unlike a rented indoor or outdoor space, you can customize your unit to better meet your needs by adding cabinets, shelving, mezzanines, etc. You can also add optional upgrades to your unit including a power door operator, custom floor coatings, and industrial ventilation. Since electrical, telephone and cable services are available in your unit, upgrades can be made at a very reasonable cost.
By purchasing a unit, you will have a better choice of sizes and configurations, including alternatives such as drive-through units, increased door widths, and wider driveway access. And since our units are so much larger than a rental alternative, you can store all of your toys in one convenient location.
When you purchase your own personal warehouse, you are making a real estate investment in a high-quality space. Given the increasing costs of development and construction, reasonable appreciation can be expected.
Is it like owning a condominium?
Yes. Your personal warehouse is a condominium. You own an undivided interest in the land, common areas, the building, and air rights for your unit just like you would with a residential condo.
Does signing up for the reservation list mean I am committed?
Reserving a Big Easy Secure Warehouse does not bind you. Making a reservation assures you that the unit you wish to purchase will not be sold to anyone else. Your contact information will be added to our database. Our staff will contact you by telephone or email when we are in a position to enter into a Purchase and Sale Agreement.
How will my contact information be used?
Your personal information is strictly confidential and will only be used by the staff of Big Easy Secure Warehouses. It will not be shared with or sold to any outside sources without your consent.
What's involved in purchasing a personal warehouse?
We've made the process easy for you. Just note your interest by calling or emailing us. A representative from Big Easy Secure Warehouses will answer your questions and send you a reservation form with some additional information. Upon completing and returning the reservation form along with a refundable deposit, we will reserve your unit. Your deposit will be forwarded to First American Title Company and held in an interest bearing escrow account until you take possession of your unit or request a return of your deposit. For your convenience, we have also identified independent financing sources for you. As the completion date for your unit approaches, you will enter into a Purchase Agreement and follow the terms outlined regarding additional deposits, insurance, payments, etc.
I have heard the term "fee simple" used for residential condos. Does this apply to my personal warehouse?
Yes, ownership is fee simple, meaning you will have transferrable title to the land and the building.
Do you offer financing?
We are currently working with lenders who are interested in financing your unit and we will be happy to discuss general terms with you. Once you place your reservation and are ready to move forward with the loan approval process we will put you in direct contact with them to learn specifics about the financing options including how to qualify for attractive rates, interest-only financing, amortization periods, and other terms. They can also provide information about eligibility for the SBA loan program.
Are there any fees for unit owners?
In order to maintain the quality of the buildings and common areas, there will be monthly owners' association fees. These fees will cover costs for landscaping, security, maintenance, insurance, common area services and utilities such as water, refuse disposal, security, and security lighting. These association fees will be determined based on the square footage of you unit. We estimate that the monthly fee for a 480 square foot unit will be approximately $24. As an owner, you can participate in decisions affecting the units and the facility, in accordance with terms set forth in conditions, covenants and restrictions (CC&Rs") for the property. The CC&Rs will set forth the rights and responsibilities of individual owners.
Are owners allowed to rent out their units?
Yes. We anticipate that some buyers will be interested in buying units for rental purposes. That's another reason to reserve your unit as soon as possible.
How much will I pay for electricity in my unit?
All of the units are individually metered. Therefore, unit owners will be charged only for the electricity which they use.
How many units are available in Phase One?
There will be 34 units available in the first pre-construction sales release, with sizes ranging from 480 to 3,052 square feet. Please refer to the Site Plan for more information.
How many different sizes are there? How big are the largest and smallest warehouses?
The personal warehouse units are available in 12 different sizes, ranging from 16 x 30 feet to 44 x 70 feet. The most popular size is 24 x 48 feet; these units offer 1,152 square feet of space, or enough room for a 40 foot Class A RV and four off-road vehicles. All of the roll-up door heights measure 14 feet high and doorway widths vary from 14 - 18 feet. There are also standard-sized man doors for most units.
Can I combine two or more units into one?
In many cases you may purchase multiple units and create direct access between them. However, after the first pre-construction sales release is complete, warehouse configurations may not be flexible because the condominium map will establish the boundaries for each unit.
How soon will these units become available for occupancy?
The units will be available during late Summer or Fall of 2010.
What can I store in my unit?
Storage is available for RVs, boats, automobiles, trucks, off-road vehicles, motorcycles and more. Big Easy Secure Warehouses are also ideal for business and commercial storage, such as seasonal inventory, tools, equipment, files, etc. Hazardous materials and/or materials that create undesirable risks or annoyances for neighbors (e.g. noxious fumes) will not be permitted.
Could someone live in his or her unit?
No. Big Easy Secure Warehouse units are not zoned for residential use and our CC&R's prohibit this.
Is it okay to work on my RV or other vehicles in my unit?
Yes, these personal warehouses are ideal for working on your RV or boat and are big enough to give you room to make repairs or polish your classic car. Your unit can be the ideal big garage-getaway for hanging out and working on your toys. With telephone and cable service available, you can stay connected to home and work, or kick back and watch TV while you spend time in your unit preparing your RV for your next road trip. There will be generous in-unit electrical and lighting and you can add climate control fans for more comfort. As you would expect, there will be restrictions on working outside of the units. The drive aisles and common areas will be kept clear and maintained in a neat and sightly condition.
How easy is it to drive an RV into one of the personal warehouses?
You will find it easy to maneuver your RV, boat or trucks because of our 50-foot wide drive aisles and roll-up doors with 14 to 18-foot wide openings. Some of the units will offer a drive-through feature for added convenience and easy maneuvering.
What kind of security can I expect at the facility?
Big Easy Secure Warehouses are in a gated facility that provides video surveillance, 24-hours a day, seven-days-a-week, computerized pass code access, a security patrol, and in-unit alarm systems. Each of our fully enclosed units offers the protection of a solidly constructed, indoor, locked-down warehouse. Fire sprinklers will also be included in each unit.
Can I install a bathroom in my unit?
Water and sewer service will be available in selected units. However, keep in mind that common-area restrooms will be available for all unit owners.
Will I have 24/7 access to my unit?
Absolutely, yes. As the owner of your own Big Easy Secure Warehouses storage unit, you can come and go whenever you like, 365 days a year, day or night.
Can I service my RV on-site?
Yes, you will own an interest in, and have access to, a dump station and a wash bay.
