Tiny cottage community

[Josh Barnett]

Hey everyone, my names Josh and live in the Tampa Bay Area. I am a firefighter/paramedic interested in building a tiny cottage community. I am new to real estate investing and would love to hear everyone’s thoughts and opinions.

I’ve always entertained the idea of building a tiny cottage community. My strategy would be to acquire a piece of property, zone it accordingly, and build ONE 400-600 sqft cottage and rent it out. As I gain more experience I would continue to build more. I believe the tiny houses would attract younger adults or I could Airbnb them. I have a lot of connections and resources. My father is a contractor but is currently starting his own building inspection company. My best friend is a realtor and I have another good friend who buys and flips. Another friend of mine actual just built his own tiny home. What are your thoughts about my idea and where should I start ?
