Keep in mind, many of these posts are several years old, and things may have changed for the better, but the following may make for some food for thought...http://www.city-data.com/forum/phoenix-area/516485-whats-deal-palomino-greenway-square.htmlhttp://wikimapia.org/684580/The-Squarehttps://www.apartmentratings.com/az/phoenix/palomino-pointe_602971199885032/Also, there are currently 81 Google Reviews for Palomino Pointe Apartments (the complex your potential building resides in), they can be rather insightful as well.Not trying to scare you away from the place, but be advised that managing such a property may be more challenging than most.

like its some animal of its own.. its simply a company that instead of retailing homes to home buyers  sells them once rehabbed to investors.. nothing more nothing less. nothing different than going to the grocery store and buying your food.. 

Having $100k and asking "what would you do" is too broad...So, maybe it would help to know what I have done so far and where I am financially.Currently have two businesses.Assets-Business 1. 11 units composed of (1 SF) and (5 Duplex)All properties are financed. 3 separate mortgagesBusiness 2. 4 units composed of (1SF) and (1 Triplex)SF is financed and Triplex is ownedLiabilities-Home Mortgage $165k ($1,300/mo)Truck $15k ($700/mo)RV $23k ($200/mo)---Our experience has been limited to Muncie and Richmond Indiana.

A few months ago the neighborhood was surrounded with fire trucks to deal with a small fire not enough to cause significant damage to the connecting house. 

As long as you use it for your businessalso heavy equipment  like a back hoe dump truck  loader etc.. invest in a business that needs these things.. like I am looking a PODS franchise you have to buy 500k worth of pods that would be a write off.

Thanks for food for thought Charles!
