Would you provide feedback on my business idea?

I have been working for 27 months on launching a business that offers education, experiences and sales of small houses. Of course the small houses are considered RV's yet that is just to get past city code. These are real manufactured houses that are built onto a steel frame; they look and feel like a real house and they have a room, kitchen and bathroom. Anyone involved with the tiny market should know that you can not get mortgage financing on an RV because they can be moved and are not considered permanent residences. Although buying these housing solutions have several steps to the process, they are affordable and sustainable solutions. So, to really get started with selling, land solutions need to be available. In Austin the infrastructure has been building over the last two years. I am interested in proving the concept, showing people that living in a small house at 1/6th of a traditional house cost is a great move for many to live. I have found a few small lots that are legal to transform into a tiny house hotels, "try before you buy" locations. How does one get a loan or a partner to invest in land/developments? Does this sound like an attractive business model? The market is the newly named boomtown of Austin, Texas. We have a fantastic website, team and demonstration house that people schedule to see inside and learn about daily. This business model has four streams of income: land lists are sold via the Internet, tiny house consultations are provided, small house overnight experiences are offered and of course small house solutions are sold Any and all feedback is appreciated.
