I'd call this town a super tiny suburb.

(These banks are great resources for commercial loans- PM if you want the contacts)I know there are some big banks out there- but I am just a tiny number in a big spreadsheet.

It is more like 5-10 seconds and a tiny tool the size of a key. 

I'd much rather own property in a town that doesn't need to sell itself off :)Seems to me the buyer will need deep pockets to do the historic renovations the town seems to be indicating they want.  700 people is a tiny market, it's hard to imagine there's enough demand to revitalize that downtown
