However, I'm wondering if I am missing an opportunity here, if anyone has knowledge of the potential pitfalls, or if there is anything that could be misconstrued into a legal issue.

They will both cash flow well, but don't really provide the opportunity to gain the equity to get my family to our long term goal of being financially free within the next 15 years.

In theory they spread out costs instead of having big ones possibly hit you at once.Other risks are burnout, running out of money (usually because of outside issues, personal issues, etc).For me, I've been thinking/evaluating a lot lately the 'opportunity cost' risk of stepping away from engineering and business career to do the real estate stuff. 

It sounds like it would be a great opportunity to buy low and make a profit, but is it worth it?

I am getting a number of opportunities to buy properties that I want, but simply dont have the money to jump on them because it is tied up in my other projects.

It is very solid, has room for improvements to add value, and has opportunity for cashflow.

@Shayne Mahoney There is still good opportunity if you find the right building.

I have scoured multiple sources for opportunities, but haven’t found much.

I don't know that this helps with direction and I think there was a gap in looking at opportunity costs when making decisions.
