Great for frogs, fish, birds, etc, just not too good for houses. 

Passive to me would be sitting in my boat fishing and receiving a check every month.

Will I be a big fish in a small pond? 

I didn't hear that podcast, but I love Coconuts Fish Tacos, Miso Phat Sushi, Nalu's and Sansei in Kihei, Nuka in Haiku, Hailiimaile General Store in Hailemaile, and Mama's Fish House in Kuau (Paia). 

Thrive here, grow your business, tackle bigger fish when you move on to better regions."

@ David HutsonI know I am a small fish in a big pond.

But don't be "that guy" who posts fake deals trying to fish in real buyers. 

Breck attracts a year round crowd and you have lots of access for hiking, cycling and fishing during the summer, with rafting, and mountain biking etc a short drive away. 

And that there are great 'real' photos, not fish eye photos that make each room look huge, or fixed (added features that are not there) photos, but real ones.

In fact, you can think about it as your "competitive advantage" as a small local investor vs maybe a bigger fish who will need to throw PM on the property right away.
