If you have  / can find suitable land (topography and zoning can be an issue), have access to the necessary capital (more expensive), can be more patient with the timelines (new builds will take quite a bit longer, especially on multi units, and dont' forget to factor in possible weather delays), and enjoy the process of designing something from nothing - GO FOR IT.One big caveat: make sure you have the RIGHT General Contractor who really understands new construction.

Solid wood is a plus, it depends what period of design you're looking for though?

I have done a lot of design and remodeling jobs in that area.

It is very user friendly and has a good amount of design options.

New Hampshire has fought off municipal bans on STRs, but did not go so far as "banning the ban" given the state history of local control, which is illustrated by Laconia NH's ban on STRs outside of designated zones and others. 

Just decks or even NO yard at all, I wouldn't recommend that kind of design for you with a 3/2 your likely going to have family with kids.. they need outdoor space.Also did you verify the area has good internet?

We have been helping the general public for a couple of years with a variety of designs and floorplans for their Tiny Homes.

I wish you the best in your spelling correcting endeavors and hope it yields the life of design you're striving for.

What I came up with is engineering in general because I like to build things and the challenge of designing and implementing something that works.I then looked at which "engineering" careers require the least amount of education/certifications/etc. to get started.

Your Architect should be able to guide you through the rest of the process of design, permits and construction.
