I think the best advice to stack the deck in your favor is to invest only with syndicators that aren't on the precipice of "broke-ness." 

In the past I would save funds for down payment and structure a deal with the seller with seller favorable terms/conditions.

I'm looking at building a commercial property, part of which I will use for another business that I own, the rest I plan to lease out to other companies/individuals.I had thought about buying and converting a building to fit my needs, but after doing research, I discovered that I could build a building to my needs for half the price of buying a similar sized building - and that's before factoring in costs to convert the building.So the question that I have for those who have built their properties is: Is there a guide or checklist that I need to ensure that I have things done in the proper fashion.

Its solid cash flow, in great shape, and I got it for what I believe to be a favorable price.
