Need Advice on dirt road!

Shehryar Iqbal
Posted

Hello Everyone! I need some advice, I am in the process of renovating my first ever home (which is taking far too long due to bad contractors) and I would like to eventually turn it into a STR or mid-term rental. The biggest problem is that the house is down a dirt road that can be hard to get to and also has a well/septic. The road is about half and mile and then a left onto a road that eventually leads to my house. It can be somewhat hard to find and drive down with a normal car sometimes, as a lower car can get stuck in the sand. Any advice? Do I just renovate, sell and move on or somehow fix the road? I dont have an endless budget to do that.

It seems like something you would have considered before purchase?

Can you afford to add gravel to the road? Would anyone want to travel to this location for a vacation?
