If you get private funding there will be a loan term (6 months or 12 months for hard money, possibly longer for private lending, but you want to pay it back as quickly as possible to minimize holding costs).

Most downtowns are near streams and flood insurance is a lot for non owner occupied ($2600 / yr for me).I've personally found minimal issues with quality tenants are many are looking to escape the Barre area.
