Only down side is that they come unassembled, so you (or a subcontractor) would have to assemble them. 

As long as you do your due diligence to learn how to evaluate potential properties, identify cities to invest with, identify personnel to handle your property (you can go with a good turn-key company or assemble your own team), learn the basic differences in tax laws for the cities you're considering, identify landlord friendly vs tenant friendly cities, etc. 

Just a thought.I'll pm a link to the under construction site I'm assembling.

Keep taking action an you will have your team assembled in no time.

Here is my situation,I have assembled a group of properties within a block of FSU campus, and am in the process of bringing in an out of town developer to turn the project/contracts over to.

I also told them to put something in the notes about how narrow the staircase is and that possibly only IKEA furniture would fit upstairs because it could be assembled in place.  

I spent about 3 years assembling about 20 parcels of land on 25 acres.The old square had people living in old houses and a mish mash of businesses from the 50's and 60's still operating.I spent sometimes 6 months going back and forth before getting the owner to sign a contract.

Check out the list Josh compiled on Assembling Your Team as you're considering who you want to get involved and who you will want and need to be involved to protect you and push you in the right direction.

So who's selling the property dictates what options you have.I don't agree that you should try to assemble a team before finding out what deals are out there for you.

Every investment comes with risk- the people who aren't willing to take those risks sit at their desks or at the assembly line until they are 65 and start collecting SS.
