I have always imagined getting to the point where I could hold/ run a small community of mountain cabin rentals or a guest house, something along those lines.Thanks,Chad  Yes I meant AirBnb and Mid-term rentals, rent by the room, glamping (although I probably wouldn't go that route), buying commercial RE and running a business (for me that would be a lot of work with a W2 job and buying property locally or leasing out a space is expensive here). 

To be blunt, if you cannot handle this then there is likely to be other issues that arise in RE investing that you will be unable to handle.

Have you tried contacting a local community bank? 

One more tip hit town homes and condo communities in the area.

Plus, they have a ton of information and videos on their site.TMC is the CDC (community develop corporation), which the SBA delegates their authority to. 

The FHA rules/regs (in particular the FHA self-sufficiency test) are applied the same across all markets, and I know for a fact that in rural communities across the country, and big cities that are not particularly desirable places to live, it's not a deal-breaker, I am not commenting on those areas.
