It's just a good idea to be ready to pivot with a traveling nurse/clinician in the event that COVID or civil unrest ramps up.

I was medically retired last year in September and moved here for my job in the post office.

Well-suited to professional/medical offices, small restaurants, small retail.

It provides easy access for travelers who are visiting AK with decent access to tourist activities.

Would be interested in the real estate side of things of course but I know there are other requirements connected with the medical side of it.

The tenant called me to explain that she has a medical issue and cannot pay next month's rent on time.

Most cards have some sort of reward program... and category bonuses for 2-3X points on travel etc (in plastiq, you can specify what type of vendor you are paying and they will run your card accordingly...don't try to cheat it). 30K Starwood points on my Amex gets me about 3 nights stay in a 250$ a night hotel.Deferred payment.. you can skip one month of payments if you time it right because of your credit card terms.. 

Columbus OH, we work with a Charlotte land developer here on larger sites like 30 acres and up not sure how big but your niche size is great. we do development, licensed general contractor, and build single family and multifamily we have a few new Floorplans every few months and I travel nationally to be an advocate for our market. it's wide open. high absorption potential and only 8 builders who build over 50 houses a year in our market. 

I’ve also looked in areas where I visit (I travel a lot) and every time I talk to a local agent the first question is always “do you have pre approvals?”

It would have to be your primary residence where you either rent out a room short term, or rent out the entire home for a limited number of days a year when you are away for travel for example.
