In a small town of Alaska and at the peak of COVID there was no Negotiation at that time haha.

It's a fabulous small town in Southern MN just off Interstate 90. 

Would be great to network when you're in town.  

Developers have been on a building rampage for the last 5 years, so we've got brand new apartments sitting vacant and properties less than 50% full in many areas of town. 

This idea dc is a company town isn’t really true & the company isn’t going out of business, 20% of the workforce is federal government, if they cut 25% of the federal workforce it would be 5% of the region and of course the vast majority are of these people would get jobs in the private sector, not to mention the government will probably have to rely more heavily on government contractors to fill gaps where the cut.

Alpine is a cool town!

If so, there are probably other people like you that would be interested in living there.If you are buying a single family home, almost any town/city will work.  

Tiny Homes would be great in college towns, 55+ communities, old trailer courts, even for businesses.

The time to get a large ground suppression there is extensive (it is ~45 minutes from a decent size town). 

It took me and my wife 17 years and more units to get to that level, but our units are SFH's in our back yard in a small midwest town with average rents under $1,000.
