What features are they wanting?  

First time I saw that feature on here. 

While it may get your home chosen over an identically priced one it won’t add value.

We have never financed a car before and have always bought used, driven it and resold for higher than purchased price after driving a year or 2.Since reading on here, if we find even a 2020 Honda with all the features with low mileage and cheaper, yes that would work too.

The one you can scale.I know successful business owners in the fitness industry, tanning salons, real estate, window coverings, maintenance, billboard, ATMs, etc.Generally, I would be skeptical of jumping into a business based on YouTube videos hosted by and featuring people that are likely primarily trying to sell you their respective courses.Small businesses can indeed be great investments, but they are hard.
