My marketing goal (stay tuned for 2 new, unique marketing websites), will focus on attracting the home farming market by creating strong relationships with organizations like Future Farmers of America (and others), to assist younger generation, new American farmers matched with land at affordable prices and with easy lease-purchase options.

Location is obviously key if you are looking at other areas (closeness to station, shopping, schools) etc.In addition, in more rural areas, people tend to rent units for families rather than for single occupants.Last, I hear it is really a nightmare to attract tenants.
