But the competition is high so cash flow or even break even can be an unphill battle unless you're willing to put money into the property.

You will also be battling everyone else looking for the same. 

At a county level will be an uphill battle imo, but I'm not a local so I'm going off what is out there in the public docs.But really think Black Mountain will be the right place for what we are trying to do.
