Thank you all for your input definitely looks like there is more than one to skin this cat.

Longer term, we could add additional cabins to the property (as stated above) since the current owners are sending overnight business to hotels in the area that are 15+ mins away.Our situation:We have about ~45% equity in my home (appraised at $775K about 6 months ago; we made some improvements but to be conservative, let's say this is still a good estimate), I can cash in my 401K, and have RSUs from my company that I can use for the majority of the cash I need to have "skin in the game" but it's short the 20% I will need for an SBA 540 for the real estate + 5% for the SBA 7a (this 5% for the DP is possible if the sellers can finance some of the business).

But most will shy away from little to no skin in the game in this market. 

And then you end up with narley colors, gloss finishes in bedrooms, and paint slathered all over the corners of ceilings and trim. 

These are also great, but are generally going to be on the other end of the affordability spectrum from the above, and the rents/incomes reflect that.Regardless even if the restaurant goes dark, there are a couple good things to owning a restaurant building.1) single tenant free standing building are the top of what retail tenants are looking for. 

Light colors are the worst. 

Its most common colors are black, white, yellow, and orange.
