I was looking up something on a agri site, when I spotted this listing:

I'm sure they are kitted out with high speed broadband, @Hinotori And you could always put a few people in those extra houses. I'm thinking holiday rentals got for a good weekly rental weekly in season here... there is a fabulous source of income and company right there!

@Britesea I was thinking the same, it needs more trees. I'd plant a small forest somewhere, there is more than enough space!

@frustratedearthmother and @baymule yes! It needs horses. There are some cows on there already, but sheep is needed. Again, there is enough space.

@Rammy at your listening? You have work to do! lol

It would be important to have an inspection done by someone with construction experience before investing in such a property. Many building rehabs cost more than it would cost to knock it down and build from scratch. Important to walk into such a project with eyes wide open, and know what the up front costs are, as well as the repair bills. Then, bid below that to cover the inevitable "oops" and "we didn't see that issue" factors.
