Avoid the national players.

Fin and Feather is a "big" resort there. 

Start sourcing deals and become a deal magnet.That's one option.....I'm sure there are many.Find out who the big players in your town are. 

Other cities seem to embrace it....think Myrtle Beach Area, A1A area, Smokies, Joshua Tree, Ski Resorts, Branson....probably almost every national park is overwhelmed with visitors the past few years.   

There you will meet all the players in the game and you will get a better sense of how to move forward and make contacts along the way.

I'm a professional basketball player working in different countries and usually travel all across the current country I am in.

But if the county re-assesses every 3 or 4 years, you will pay market prop taxes soon enough.I’ve been an investor for 46 years and this is NOT something I would do.Over this time, I have seen investors get themselves in trouble by being “too smart by half” often with creative tax structures that end up causing trouble but this is a another danger zone in my mind.I’d think long and hard before embarking on what you propose.If the acquisition doesn’t stand in its own merits and one needs to resort to chicanery to make it work maybe it’s not a deal.just my two cents.good luck,Arn

It's vitally important to know who you are working with, and have the history of the players involved.
