Hi @Lindsay G.! All of this is a very normal occurrence in our area. Almost all of our out of state clients take this approach. Will be happy to connect you with one of our agents if you are interested in the Smoky Mountains. Good luck!

We are based in Sevierville and can help or get you pointed in the right direction. Feel free to DM me and I can give you a call this week. 

@Logan Pou

No. Not a big fan of it.

Look at recently sold homes that are similar in size, bedrooms, location, finishings, etc....or just call a realtor you trust.

I could be off on this number so you would need to check with your loan officer, but I believe you must occupy the home 14 days or the equivalent of 10% of the days you will have it rented in order to qualify for a 2nd home loan. 

@Gregory Schwartz Most CC covered by other post. I would also encourage hiring a photographer. There can be a big price difference between interior photographers....it is usually because of process they use when taking photos(HDR vs lights). For your property any photographer with decent experience should be able to get you great quality and angles. Shouldn't cost you much, but will bring a big return.

@Courtney Anderson No better place than East TN. Sevier County is the premier STR location in the state. Market is crazy here like everywhere else. So get with a good RE Agent who knows their way around the market and making competitive offers.
