Those areas will increase your net worth at a much more rapid rate, but it's a slower burn.

Kansas has always been slower to react to changing markets, economic cycles, even fashion.

Thanks in advance for any input.Hi Chad, I took another look at your floor plan and some areas seem a little cramped.It might not be apparent on the floor plan unless you look for it.So to see what it would look like with more people room, I opened things up with about 36 inches walking space instead of 24 inches, pushed the island out a foot and (which may save money and time) simplified the wall layout. 32 inch doors at a minimum, etc..I have no experience in short term rentals, but in long term people tend to notice the kitchen first.I also added a wet bar/wine cabinet to match the kitchen cabinets, because many of the medical personnel I've known over the years tend to enjoy a bit of the hard stuff after work.

It was a 2800 square foot medical condo unit, in a great part of town, rented out to a plastic surgeon.

I understand the current market cycle is unpredictable at the moment and that it likely won’t be corrected by the time I’m financially stable and ready to invest, however that is why I am currently considering wholesaling real estate for the chance to jump start my plan and take action as I can’t help but feel guilty for simply going to school ( I aim to be a medical laboratory scientist and eventually a director). 

My name is Long; I am recent medical school grad and will be starting a residency in Neurosurgery in Miami.

This route is a bit slower and more costly in my experience but is a great option if conventional route doesn't work or is too cumbersome. 

Interest rates are rising while I complete the project slower myself and its success is being squeezed more and more tightly.

It depends...which I know is the worst answer XD  I currently focus/specialize in MTR in the Boise, ID area, but I had to do a lot of market research to learn the demand of what industries in the areas are calling for traveling professional, the tier system of hospitals versus their need for specialized medical departments/needs, and competition analysis of platforms like VRBO/AirBnB to see the success of similar like properties.

I always forget that things move slower and cost more than you plan for.
