Yeah I understand some new owners work double time for a few years. I'm willing to do this. Would just like any pointers I can get before I take the leap

I have specific ideas, I don't know that they matter within this post though.
Cabins for tourists, hospitality.
Agriculture like farming, cows, other meat animals.
Really only the two ideas - I have family that works in both and could help me learn the ropes.
General ideas will help the most - I don't want to wear my family out with a hundred questions when Ats is a pretty great community with far more members in my family. I'll have them help me with the specifics, like which booking agencies to use, and the like.

I do have a stable job that I hate right now, but am willing to work part time as long as I need.
Most of my ideas are start smaller - people around here have success with even a few cabins, or one fixed up house for tourists to rent for a few nights.
I could very well just cap out all my credit, get cosigners and investors and go big - this area does have the ability to do so, but I think less risk, less reward for now. I'm having my first kid later this year, so don't want to go too crazy just yet.

My sister brought up "glamping" at one point and thought it would be good in this area. Camping is quite popular around here, so I do see there being a market. I would have to acquire some land, but as long as the land didn't come with too many water rights, I think it would be affordable
