@Buddy Holmes thanks for the idea! I had a similar thought, but the POA unfortunately requires a minimum of 1200 sq ft for each building. Perhaps there is a middle ground between true tiny house and complete custom build!

Has anyone ever built on an empty lot specifically for a STR/vacation rental?
I picked up an empty riverfront lot last week - the deal was just too good to pass up. Based on comps and tourism traffic, I really think the location would perform best as a STR/AirBnB/VRBO once a building sits on the lot. That said, I don't hear many stories about folks building STRs from scratch.
Has anyone done it that can share how they assessed value/risks? From what I can see, the economics could really make some sense as long as I can get a construction loan similar to when you build a customer single family residence.
Thanks!
