I've seen appraisers go out 5+ miles on comps on these rural properties, sometimes go far as back as 24 months.

Fewer new builds can limit supply, preventing dramatic price drops.Finding Opportunities – Rather than assuming prices will decline across the board, look for motivated sellers, properties that need work, or areas where short-term uncertainty creates long-term opportunity.

I can't seem to find any properties that cash flow there with where current interest rates are. 

Get a 50% LTV loan and buy another property just like the one you own.
