If it's rural with small property lots versus those with acreage then the latter probably has more leeway to store their "treasures" on their own property. 

@Austin Smucker  Hi Austin, this property was bought by hanging a flyer at our local discount grocery store! 

If you don't have your own track record, you need to partner up with someone who does.As for the actual books, you can start with https://www.biggerpockets.com/store/raising-privat...by @Matt Faircloth.

So the seller came to me with a deal he was inherited by his father which is a nice piece of land and its leased out by a big grocery store chain and pays so much a month and is worth a good bit.

We're talking folks from Korea, who sometimes started out in grocery stores and retail, had stores burned in the '92 riots, went through lots of hardship.

The Sacramento Association of Realtors, which has training and a store with all the supplies you need, is off Howe. 

I was thinking of buying one but i do not see them in the book store anymore. 

You just lost weeks of rent income storing $150 worth of crap.If these were items of real value that you expect the tenant may come back to claim, then you can consider placing it in storage (even your personal garage).
