Some developers buy a piece of land, build a house for a single-family, and rent it out then. Sometimes it is more difficult and expensive to repair an old house than build a new one. However, I like the idea that you will build a new one later and let this old one work. It wouldn't be smart to just let it stay while you collect money to build a new one.
