Quote from @Lee Banks: Im Lee im 22 and currently live in New York, I constantly stress about how I'm going to take care of my family and become financially stable/Free.

Six acres in a fast-developing area plus an income-producing remodeled house should be getting some bites, so if you’re not seeing showings after two months, it’s probably less about the property and more about how it’s being marketed and who it’s reaching.Here’s what I’d look at:1.
