@Bob Wilson managing lower wage workers, buying equipment for lawn care and having a tiny little landscaping company is going to be way more hassle than outsourcing.

You will Not be able to borrow the down payment on a property from Any lender, let alone a HML, if you aren't putting up a Different property with no/tiny loan on it.

I myself have considered trying to get some lots for Tiny House rental, but I do not think the demand is there in the market I am looking in.Just my first few thoughts, there is always more.

I like the idea of a tiny single family home or duplex that I can put a larger (>50%) down payment on as a first foray into real estate.
