Buy-and-hold rental properties from Massachusetts

Buy-and-hold rental properties in Massachusetts with decent land size

 I manage EdibleProperties.com and rent out 1-5 acre homesteads to people who want to grow their own food and raise their own animals in right-to-farm townships.  We have been blessed to live on a homestead for the past eight years and it has been a wonderful, amazing experience.   More or less, I produce most of the food for my wife and I for the year on our homestead. Living here, we have discovered many other people that want to do the same thing but cannot afford a mortgage. My first property to try this niche is a 3 bedroom home with office on a 5 acre property in Belchertown MA. It is  up for rent now as of September 9, 2015. I hope this crazy idea works! We want good tennants,  we want cash flow, and we want to help earnest people find a chance to enjoy the good life of homesteading.  If this cannot be a win-win situation I'm not sure I'm interested.  I live for win-wins in all my negotiations. 

About Bigger Pockets: I am quite impressed with the humble nature of this website and the people on it, with the podcasts, with the blogs, the forums, everything. This community has been very inviting and encouraging and it's so great to be involved with this community and feel like I am not dealing in some kind of future upsale or sales scam.  In a nutshell it is down–home! The podcast and the free PDFs have been an excellent education for me. I look forward to earning cash flow while at the same time helping people. I look forward to corresponding and meeting you here.
