If I want to start a business in Holmes will I be able to find local investors?

As with all business ventures, that depends on what you do, its relevance to the community, and who you know. You'd be lucky to find a couple thousand people out here in Holmes, but one thing to note is that there isn't a ton of local business here in the first place.

I would think that it would be a little tough to do but that's just my read on it.
