Any big differences between Residential and Commercial investing?

Looking to expand my portfolio a bit into the commercial space.

Besides actual lease terms, anyone know of any big differences between landlording/managing residential versus commercial spaces?

looking to see who has done both and what things to look out for.

They are completely different in every way from acquisition, due diligence, financing and management. A good place to start if by talking with Brokers selling the type of properties you're interested in as well as management companies and lenders. They will be able to offer a lot of things to look out for and what you need to know gong in.
