I need to move across the country and it isn't feasible to manage the property.

If he is into commercial I can walk him thru Selfstorage or country subdivisions when he is off for Xmas break. 10.  

I have not seen any "main stream" versions of this just back country engineering but it's a solid concept and works well.

@Jonathan Greene“when everyone knows it takes six to eight months of cross-platform marketing to make stuff happen.”I didn’t think about this until I read your post.  

There are many groups that meet across the country.

(If curious, my residential real estate investor clients from 10 years ago [you can find my 10 year old bigger pockets dot com posts :], at the time buying up 2-4 unit properties, a lot of them are now done with the 'human' tenants and want to 1031 into something that is ACTUALLY passive, so yes Starbucks comes up, thus I watch it).In my case I zoomed all the way into a specific brand (which then allows me to make very sweeping generalizations across an entire state -- but still not the entire country), I'm not suggesting you do that, but SOME of the variables need to be narrowed down, before you can gain any useful insights. 

We do ground up construction of 3-4 units in the urban core of Columbus for investors all over the country. 

The previous owners did a do-it-yourself remodel which had tons of red flags if I had taken the time to cross-reference the sellers disclosure with the inspection report, but at that time the market was hot and I had to move fast.

@Li Li, Since the 1031 exchange will allow you to move into any type of real estate anywhere in the country.
