I have always been interested in home construction techniques that are different or older.Container homes, these sorts of shot-crete homes, bale homes etc.The biggest issue is not that fact that they will rent, for if they are in the right location, of course they will rent just fine.

I could care less if anyone used my services.. we do just fine without one off beginners.

Maybe you are talking about building more townhome style, which, I have a builder friend that just built a four townhomes and are selling fine, as well.  

If it does fine, we will add a second pond below it.Have 1,000 all male tilapias on order for delivery in a month. 

Builders do this a lot to add extra potential sleeping area without having more bedrooms than septic is rated for.I have seen people put beds in the loft after closing or even close in this area to make an unofficial bedroom.Just be clear in your pictures and description and you should be fine either way.

If i have to do some renovations thats fine.

Doing a Fix and Flip in a flood zone is totally fine, but there is obviously added risk on the exit.

@Nathan Gesner Yes, I'm fairly confident if we were to hold long term, we'll do just fine. 

If a person wants to chase wealth for wealth's sake, that's fine with me.

I agree that there’s a fine line between aggressive but legal vs. reckless and punishable.I saw this gem from Will Rogers:  “The income tax has made more liars out of the American people than golf has.”
