I have seen these appreciate very well given that they are the alternative for those who cannot afford a 3 bedroom home.

Boomers are also the wealthiest generation of all time, making assisted living the most affordable of all time. 

If you've worked with some affordable Architects in Alameda, CA, could you please recommend them to me? 

At that point, it's worth researching and finding a solution that better meets your needs.

(Only half the taxes are due and maybe they could afford a 15 year mortgage on the lower amount.)

Year-round road access can also vary, with some parcels only accessible seasonally.Market Trends: The Fairbanks real estate market is competitive, but when it comes to land it's not very competitive and the prices are still relatively affordable compared to other states, making it an attractive option for investors or builders.

This seems like a reasonable solution.

Second is that you can ask questions and get more detail to understand the issue and possible solutions.

I think identifying these markets that have a history of vacation rentals (so STR regulations are not worried about), near State or Regional Attractions (alot of national attractions may be priced out but not all), while also being affordable for the average STR investor.

Now that I know that Quartz/Granite is more affordable I will check into it for our next reno coming up, but laminate has been really durable for us in our last 2 personal homes as well.
