There's a small house towards front of the lot that can be renovated and rented out, I'm wondering about dropping in tiny homes or renting out space for something else.

Hey Ron, welcome.I used to work a self-employed job in NYC that was also very unpredictable with ups and downs, and in 2015 [and years leading up to it] moved to Poconos specifically for airbnb, starting with a small tiny cabin, and it worked out since.

Then add a tiny home or two to your acreage and rent short term. 

Furthermore, it's hard to tell exactly what's going on in that photo, but that tiny little branch looks too small to do any significant damage, and the dents appear to be hail damage (not typical of a tree limb which would be scratches not perfectly round dents).

Tiny percent of casino action. 

I think some of the challenges you're going to have speculating appreciation with a new build in UT county are (and this is my skeptic side, so take this with a bit of a sarcastic tone - and sorry, I just re-read this and it's long... ):Lot sizes are ridiculously tiny - you're not going to find a lot of availability of a spacious lots (or any size lot) for a reasonable price.  

When inhaled, diacetyl causes bronchiolitis obliterans - more commonly referred to as "popcorn lung" - a scarring of the tiny air sacs in the lungs resulting in the thickening and narrowing of the airways.Not something you want in the air especially with other employees or tenants living there in a multifamily situation

Sounds like you are doing well in that tiny part of AL! 

This brings my to my current plan which any feedback would be greatly appreciated. l could buy a piece of property in between the two locations and rent tiny houses to the students with a recreational building located on the property.

(She rents land and lives in her own tiny house on wheels.)Now she’s too afraid to live there and is moving out.
