In theory, I could have bought a boat by now for all the money I "threw away", but in reality I didn't have to store the boat, maintain it, replace equipment and motors, or drag it in and out of the water when I wanted to change lakes.

At worst it's the blower motor which can be replaced without purchasing and installing a whole new furnace.

It made an awful motorized whine opening and closing.

The property also link to a mountain trail network for hiking, riding, motor sports etc.I am trying to gather information to see how viable this type of STR is/can be and and info from more experienced folks in this field.

I have a 12 unit WW II era motor-court "motel" that I operate as apartments.I agree that it is critical to understand the municipality and retain a local architect type who knows the municipality personnel and the requirements.In my case, a change in zoning was out of the question as municipalities tend not to want to set precedent in changing zoning.

What attracts me to this property is that its 8 commercially zoned acres on motorized sports allowed lake, only 2.3 hours from NYC.

Then you won't have to worry about the many burglaries, motor vehicle thefts, assaults, the kidnapping that took place a few streets away, oh and that aggravated robbery that happen just to the south of this property. 

The way this asset protection structure works is with LLC’s created to hold your real estate and other assets that may be a cause of a potential liability, anything that has a motor, or has a key or can go boom.

It was the motor.

Intel in the East Valley is expanding.Lucid Motors is supposed to be doing something in AZ... and Bill Gates is planning his "Future City" development somewhere out there between where You and I reside.
