Would we save money building a house/ADU on land and renting out current house?

i’ll do my best to explain well. we live in a small rural town in KS, thankfully there is a nice private college here. the house we live in is an ideal college renting location (2 blocks from school) we bought it as a foreclosure for about 40% current value. we could realistically rent and profit around $2k-2500 including property tax (5 br). we love the house and location but we also own farm land about 10 mins out of town and really want to move out there. it has water and electric at corner, but no dwellings, it is wide open flat. our family is growing (2 kids, 1 on way). trying to think of ways to grow income.

I know this is so dependent on area, just trying to get idea, is it realistic for us to move out there And live in modular home, ADU, manufactured home, etc that has a lower monthly mortgage than the rent/profit of this home. does that make sense? In other words, do you think we can move out to our farm, build a cheap af home (we are ay okay with it being small for now like 800-1200 sq ft For now) we really want to be out on the farm and by moving out there our income would grow (raise sheep and pigs on farm and rent out our current house) but im wondering if the price to build an ADU would negate the $2k-2500 of renting this house out.

TIA. sorry if scrambling just a dad trying to think of solutions lol.

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...
