North Georgia Cabin Rentals (Eljay, Blueride, etc)

William Ford
Posted

My wife and I are wanting to purchase our first rental (we are in the Forsyth County area) and thought that a cabin in North Georgia would be a good place to start. We love going up there, so were hoping to purchase a lower price cabin (180k or lower, 3 bed/2 bath minimum) and rent it on AirBnb for 2-3 weekends a month and us use it maybe once a month. 

Thoughts on this? One we have our eye on is a 3 bed/ 2 bath at 165k in Cherry Log near some rivers, hiking trails and ponds. Any tips/advice on how difficult keeping it rented will be would be helpful!

How are you going to arrange for cleaning/restocking and repairs/maintenance?  Those are going to be your main responsibilities.  How is your 3M Talent (Mechanic, Magician, Mindreader)?  What will you do if there is underage drinking, drugs or prostitutes involved with your rental?  I've experienced all 3.
