You could charge access fees or offer day passes for off-road adventures.Lease for Cell Towers: If the location is right, telecommunications companies might be interested in leasing a small portion of your land to install a cell tower.Event Space: If you can make it picturesque or add basic amenities, the land could be rented out for events such as weddings, retreats, or festivals.

Quote from @Griffin Coxen: @Adrian Chu Is the DADU accessible from the back of the lot or is there an easement across the lot of the original home?

By structuring deals with regular refinancing, you can unlock the equity in your properties and access capital for future investments.

The way I see it is 25% down out of state means $100k in down payment/closing cost to obtain turnkey property that gains equity similar to an IRA or 5% down managing a renovation in the property your living in which in turn pays yourself from the equity gains which allows you to get to multiple house hacks very fast. 

@Tony Nguyen @Mark Allen @Gino BarbaroI am a student in Boston, and would greatly appreciate access to your pitch material.Thanks!

In the meantime, maybe look into refinancing options for the short-term rentals to access some equity, especially if they’re performing well.

How can I get comps, both sale and rent comps, for single and MF properties without having access to MLS?

You make more when it's uneven and you can live in the smaller unit.Focus on the asset and the area, as long as you can withstand net negative or breakeven cashflow, and you will gain in appreciation.

I will say this short term sacrifice can lead to major long term gains.  

Online options: Many counties have online access to property records through their official websites.
