The building will be on a very busy artery of the city, with about 60-70,000 vehicles driving through it per day.

I have yet to personally own them, but have analized and been in negotiations with many in several states.There are pros and cons with every investment vehicle and this one is no different.The pros I experienced in my research and hands on experience was that you can get higher returns, and purchase a better cap rates than apartment buildings.

I think I'm leaning towards having 10 - 20k in a savings account and have everything else in high yielding investment vehicles.
