Since you’re leaning toward the “reconnect with nature” vibe, are you thinking of adding features like hiking trail maps, partnerships with local guides, or even some eco-friendly touches to the property?

I recommend you go visit a few times to network with local investors or find an investor friendly agent so you can gain local market knowledge, find off market deals and for things such as showings, picture taking or getting accurate comps.

Or you can sell it, split the equity, and go separate ways.I'm not a fan of borrowing from family/friends unless all parties are honest and everything is documented in a written contract.

I just recently started a jiu jitsu academy with a couple of friends, and although I was not in the day to day grind of the process in finding a building and building the space out, I did become fascinated with the process.

Gather emails with something like Stayfi, use a qr code to have guests follow you on socials or leave their emails in a sign up for discounts coming back, use a Meta Pixel on your direct booking website or landing page and then do a retarget ad campaign to them, offer "Family and Friends" promo codes to guests when they come back through an auto message a couple of weeks after they have left, etc. are some that I use.  

Smart move. documentation is your best friend :)  Stay safe out there.

This agreement with your general contractor acts as a roadmap, with clear expectations and protection for all parties involved.One frequent mistake is the failure to include sufficient detail or being too vague.

I have always been fascinated with Peoria, though I’m not sure how investor friendly Illinois is.

Brokers are your best friend as we have the entire industry at the palm of our hand and usually save you time & money.

I know in Virginia my friend had a similar issue (side-by-side duplex, though, not second floor) and he was not proactive, just warning them several times verbally.
