The revenue for this would be seasonal because it would be an outdoor wedding venue. 

Start networking at local real estate events, and online within the STR communities on Facebook and even here!

If you are trying to capture quick events  your camera might not activate soon enough to capture a plate number.

Try to meet local investors at meetups and networking events. 

It is fairly common for appraisals of the same property to come in at very different numbers from different appraisers.In any event, I do not wish to engage in an endless debate with people who have more time on their hands than I.

You will be better off going to a real estate networking event where you can meet multiple people instead of 1 person via coffee.You can meet someone at a networking event and ask them for coffee / lunch at a later time if you click or want to learn more from the person.i would suggest Meetup.com, eventbrite or biggerpockets to find networking events.

I highly recommend you to learn as much as you can via their recorded videos and/or live event. 

FWIW, a tiny-house group in Atlanta is doing a virtual workshop on Thursday about developing pocket neighborhoods:https://oklahoma.uli.org/events/detail/CABD7705-6C0E-437B-A243-274637637601/I'm not affiliated with the event, but I did attend MicroLife's first in-person version of this workshop (just a few months ago) and thought the tools, examples, and methods they presented were useful.

Indy is now the host of many major events / conferences, and the narrative on the ground is very positive about our real estate, and like many places the supply cannot keep up with the demand. 

For example: If I bought a house for $200K, and the quote to construct the very same house in the same location is $300K, then the value of improvements should be considerably high ($200K) and the value of the land be considered negligible (closer to 0).Of course this helps depreciate more improvements in the life of the property, but I would like to hear your thoughts on whether this logic would hold up with IRS in the event of an audit.What do you think?
