You're still considered US citizen for qualification purposes not a foreign national.

They might not be great for cash flow but might be great for long term capital appreciation especially when you use leverage.I’d rather own a $1M asset that breaks even but appreciates consistently by 3% than own a $100k asset that cash flows $3k per year.There’s power in investing in or near your backyard.  

Find a small one that is not nationally advertised. 

And it might not look very tempting when put together.This part is for anyone reading this who never comments: My humble advice to anyone attempting to do creative finance is:Creative finance is for experienced investors who have access to capital if everything goes wrong.

Best decision I've ever made. 4-6% average annual appreciation rate, stable job growth, population growth, drivable to the Bay Area, close to Lake Tahoe, no state income tax, 4th lowest property taxes in the Nation, much more landlord friendly than CA, land constrained meaning limited supply, etc. 

That being said, the structure will matter, especially if any Pref or cashflows to you are being structured as a return of capital vs distribution vs something else.

You're a new investor without a lot of capital.

Much more difficult to raise EQUITY capital through partners 3.
