Newbie with an idea looking for advice

[Dami Gonzales]

Hello, new here. I have about $55k in cash/stocks right now. I have a pretty good income, currently living near Phoenix Arizona. Living with roommates to keep my rent cost lower. 

I have an idea. Would love to hear some feedback. 

My dad has a small piece of land near Medina lake in Texas (currently all dried up).

Thinking of the following, only using about $35k of my own cash.

1. Request my dad to add my name to the land deed.

2. Look into using that land as collateral for a loan (need to do research still. Not entirely sure how this works or if a good idea)

3. Hiring a tiny home builder for the property

4. Set up the tiny home with a theme.

5. List tiny home on Airbnb. 

I think it would be a few years before I saw a direct return, but thinking it would be good for a long term investment and also maybe I can even turn around and use the built equity (if any) later. 

I'm also WFH in my new job, so if it's a complete flop, I could deal with the loss and live there to reduce my overall personal expenses.

Tiny house is not financeable so keep that in mind. Basically spending money on one of those sheds in the Home Depot parking lot. Although I think you can finance those so maybe my theory has flaws.
