I have been BRRRR-ing for over a decade in Milwaukee and it's not like deals were always easy to find, but once a house has been sitting on the market for 6 months, sellers get more motivated to discuss a less than ideal priced offer.

People told me I was an idiot to put a sauna at my mirror house and it CRUSHES.

If outdoor: open field or hoop houses? 

It’s next door to her mother’s house.

1 - yes2 - I don't think that the drain from your house to the main sewer falls under the "Municipal Sewer" category that @Joshua Thompson mentioned, but I would have to check before giving a verdict.

.- DaveSeems cool,I have always wanted to own a holiday house in the Bahamas :)Actually traveling there to look at few early next year. 

My intention is to house hack and eventually STR the property. 

Joshua,My wife and I have 3 STR's.  1 in Missouri and 2 in Florida(1 is a condo and one is a house).  

You'll get the most favorable financing terms and offset your housing expense while paying principle.

I currently have 4 units under complete renovation.
