Gatlinburg/ pigeon forge

Greg Thomson
Posted

Good evening! First post! Regular podcast listener and forum browser.

I have been looking to invest in a STR. Originally was thinking Ski country up in the northeast. I live just south of Boston. So close by.

Being a skier, with a family that is looking to learn themselves, thought about a STR that could be utilized when not rented. Looked up in the North Conway/ Jackson NH area as well as Mt snow VT.

The more I was researching and learning, I found out about  the Gatlinburg area. Really peaked my interest. The more I read.... the more appealing it sounds.

Just curious if it’s still a good investment down there. What’s the inventory like and if it still has potential.

I did some very quick browsing on VBRO and saw a lot of open days/weeks. 

In the beginning stages but looking to get some feedback and make some connections.

Thanks!

Greg

Find @Avery Carl on her BP podcast and you will know everything you need about the Smokies STR market and you will wish there were more available to buy. Many people owe their success to her Short Term Rental shop. @Derek Tellier is on her team and who I used to buy ours in November.  Profit in month 1.  Bought right and managing myself.
