Hey BP community — wanted to share a model we’ve been implementing in rural New Hamps

[Steve Eason]

We're developing on 1–2-acre rural parcels with energy-efficient SIP homes and steel-frame barndominiums, all designed to include ADUs (either attached or as flex additions). The land is affordable, and we handle site prep, septic design, and driveway installation upfront — making these projects turnkey for those looking to house-hack, rent, or resell.

Here’s why this works in our markets:

• Entry costs are lower than suburban infill

• Towns are receptive to ADUs and value-add development

• SIP construction speeds up timelines and saves on energy

• ADUs create instant equity or cash flow without major zoning battles

Our primary buyer pool includes:

• First-time buyers looking to build equity

• Small investors looking to generate cash flow without tenant-heavy headaches

• Families building generational homesteads with future rental upside

Curious if anyone else here is:

• Using SIP or Barndo-style builds with ADUs?

• Navigating rural zoning for creative housing?

• Finding financing tools (DSCR, construction-to-perm, etc.) that fit non-standard builds?

Would love to connect and share ideas or pain points if others are on similar paths.
Happy to dive deeper if there’s interest.
