I grew up on a farm and looked into it some a while back, basically it doesn't make a whole lot of sense from an investment standpoint unless you personally have some project where you can generate much higher yields than normal from it (like a pumpkin farm or something, or oil wells, lol). 

Like the get rich by investing mindset and conferences, feels slightly snake oil salesman to me again with so many middle/upper middle class americans jumping all in on these investments 

@Trevor Aydelott Elk City is heavily reliant on the oil industry for its economic life blood, and tends to boom and bust along with it.

again the fair market rent is a range or approximate, they determine a final value after inspection and applying options chart, one reason so many variables, the rent on an updated home might be different than one next door that isnt, one that has gas heat or oil heat, for the right tenant they can make exceptions and pay higher, say if handicap access and no others around that arealso https://www.hud.loans/https://static1.squarespace.co...https://www.multifamily.loans/...

We are not reliant on any particular industry, compared to a city like Houston, with its dependence on the oil industry.

I work in the oil and gas and telecommunications industry as a geoscientist and some of my work is offshore. 

I live in Alaska where the economy is largely affected by oil prices.

This home needs a complete rehab and is heated by oil.

Anthony,The Houston market has been hit quite hard by declining oil prices. 

@Oliver Hoeller, I'll send you a PM.
