I am located in Boston, MA and may be interested in including my furnished unit.Thank you,Jesus 

Based on a gut check (checking the town population + location on google maps), this may be the case. 

Any suggestions would help please Colorado Springs has some weird regulations about this depending on which county it's located in so be sure to check in with the planning department in the specific county you're looking at.

I am debating using my local lawyer vs. finding a lawyer in the state where the property is located.

In my experience, it depends on which part of NE you are located.

Where are you located?

This is as good a location as any? 

Views, location to attractions and layout of property can make or break you in a good location or not so great location.

Oftentimes the "immediate and highest return" evaporates once you get into it and start dealing with various issues that weren't addressed upfront or due to location (harder to fix). 100% agree with you!
