I can only assume its located in a rapidly appreciating market where investors are willing to suck it up for a couple of years and let price appreciation do the hard work for them (always a risky gamble in any market).

You provide a safe and decent place, they take care of it - that's the deal.They will not be annoyed with you for this, they will be thrilled with you for this, because it means you are a landlord who actually cares about them and the property. 

@Jane A.Stock market is more like gambling on hoping that your stock improves in my opinion.

This is not an abstract game.It seems to me that investors who look for thrills would go for day trading on stocks or crypto.Still, she gives great advice on how to improve one's game and not get complacent.

You'd want (need) to stick with one lender through out the phases because otherwise you will need to completely refinance into a new loan every time and eat the costs of fees.That said, lenders these days are not very thrilled about construction loans.

I'm still not thrilled but i'm going to see how they do. 

This method  can be no better than gambling, no thanks.

If you can’t see it - it’s a gamble plain and simple.

If your setting is rustic, this might work, but I'm not sure that most brides (and brides' mothers) are going to be thrilled about this option. - Caterers will want/need dedicated kitchen space to heat/prep food.

I want to go into the investing side but would be thrilled to learn anything about real estate.
