Having 100 units under one roof gives you far more focus and economies of scale when it comes to maintenance etc.
All your risk is concentrated on one pile. You have no flexibility when it comes to exit strategies with only one building/project.
They both have advantages and drawbacks. Often it is a case of where you end up as opposed to where you wanted to end up. Make the most of it wherever you end up.
All the best!
