Good Idea?

Hello, I am 26 years old looking to buy a piece of land in a gated community in an area that has all season tourism. The deal is that I buy the land and then later on I have to build a house using approved builders.

I put 20% down on the land and plan on paying off the land or building in under 5 years.

Looking to build a 5 bed 4.5 bath house on the land in 2 years. This would be a second home vacation rental managed by a rental company at 17% commission per month of the rent. The second home mortgage would be around $2500 per month taxes everything included

I only have one income source, but I have about $40k per year after living expenses that I can save for emergencies/ put towards the financing/bills of this second home. I have a mortgage on my first home of about $2500 taxes everything included.

Other than a couple thousand on a car note and the first mortgage, I have no debts.

So far I have about 20k saved for emergencies.

Can I afford this project? What do I need to keep in mind?

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...
