Any insight into the best way to manage the utilities as well as ideas on things you have done to make best use of the space with dual kitchens?

Everything was as iron clad and tight as you could make it for the lender.

Currently 3 commercial spaces for rent, 1 apartment.

Costs to put a beam to open the space between existing kitchen and LR?

We did this through the paid coaching space to get us started and it helped immensely.

If you hop on AirBNB and there are lots of places to rent way out in the future but few now (assuming there isn't a "busy season"), that could be a positive sign.18 acres isn't enough space to hunt on safely or ethically except maybe wingshooting or bow deer depending on location, so that's probably out...

Thanks to BP and other platforms, you can better network and find those brokers who operate in the space or niche.

This actually may play into your strength if you are doing this as a side hustle, but it is maddening as you try to build a business in this space.

We provide a range, dishwasher if there's space for one, range vent, etc but never a fridge.

The biggest mental hurdle I faced when entering the STR space was that I did not want to deal with the headaches associated with managing an Airbnb and maintaining a 5-star rating.
