First deal jitters on smoky mountain cabin

[Marco Egurvide]

Hey BP!

I am currently under contract on my first str in the Smokey’s and I am excited, while at the same time getting those jitters as we move through the process. I’m looking for some advice from the community on the property I am in contract for and just getting insight from those of you that are much more experienced than I am.

It’s being marketed as a small secluded honeymoon cabin and most all decor is being directed at that demographic of renter. There is currently only one bed in bedroom and regular couch. My idea was to either to replace with a futon bunk bed or one of those hidden day beds so I can say that it would fit another couple or 2 kids so more of a family getaway not just couples only. This also could be for travelers/hikers that are not a couple. The other thing is using enemy method against the current Airbnb listing is I know I can take better photos and it is 20-30/night overpriced (not many bookings). Should I continue with my idea to change furniture around and make this a successful rental or would you cut and move to another property? My budget was under $500 which is why I am looking at smaller properties in the first place.

I would love your opinions based off current listing! Thank you!!!!
