What are people’s thoughts on buying a house on a main road. There is an easement and it’s set back behind another house.

As I've learned over the years, there is a buyer for *any* property at the right price. In other words, nothing wrong with buying a house on a main road, as long as your ARV/resale price accounts for it.

Make sure that your comp analysis factors this in and provides a sufficient adjustment for any comps that aren't on this road.  If the numbers still work, go for it.
