I found out about this from a coworker at my day job who quit our company to start a full time baking business (wedding cakes, mostly).

Are there summer weddings in the location you're looking at?

@Easton Hill My partners and I have a few boutique motels and a wedding venue in Virginia - let me know if you need advice on anything!

Hell it’s why I forced a primary home new construction settlemtn in the same week we paid for our rather expensive wedding.

Mon-Wed nights, Sat mornings ideal. 

But the house is only part of it -- then you need the car, the landscaper, the housekeeper, the HOA fees, the country club membership, the lavish wedding for your daughter .......When all you really need for TRUE happiness is a little farm, a pick up truck, goats, a good dog and an APARTMENT BUILDING.

Hi my name is David. Was wondering if anyone has any experience with building/operating an event venue. In short, I own a Farm Property along the " Foxen Canyon Wine Trail " in Santa Barbara County, surrounded by vine...

i don't close till wed ive asked to meet with current owners to help with eviction .

My experience is that this is pretty conservative.I would caution you about wedding yourself to the 2% rule or rules that demand exceptionally high CoC returns, like those you see in the midwest.  

The current tenants, three young men, are not very focused on the yardwork - the mowing of the large front and back yards and wedding of the gravel and barked areas.
