You also said you purchased a few months ago and you the employer isn't shutting down for a few more months...I'd try to ride out staying where you are as long as possible.

That way you will be getting the information straight from the horses mouth.

Has anyone ever heard of rehabbing farm land , like a horse farm or any for that matter? 

Enjoy the ride!

I don't mean to be rude but while you stand on your high horse maybe u might consider this .

Nothing wrong with riding that wave I think. 

I much prefer to be able to "force" appreciation rather than merely put myself in a position to "ride" appreciation. 

On the other hand, Option 2 with the BRRRR strategy entails owning a single property outright, building long-term equity, and potentially cashing out through renovations, but it's a slower ride, relying on successful renovations and favorable refinancing options, and you're starting with just one property, which may limit your income potential.

About 25 minute ride to center City.In my mind this is perfect for a General Contractor.

I am considering keeping my current personally owned home/farm and renting it as horse owner property. already completely set for 2-4 horses. my personal interest rate on the property is 2.6% and I don't want to loose it.
