"Holding onto a grudge is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die."

Not the greatest occupancy rate, especially when compared with somewhere like the Smokies.

Use AirDNA to get a better feel for what may be projected and then dive into Airbnb and compare to your competitors. 

I have two properties (exact same property just across the street from each other) one is a seller finance that is coming to the end of its contract for balloon payment and the other is a fix and hold Interest only loan that is also coming to the end of its contract for balloon payment.

Even comparing Provo to NC in terms of flight duration and cost even though both have direct flights would be a huge factor for me.

Our team holds a meetup every month that is for investors and house hackers!

Generally I'm a fan of hold until you die but in this case you are earning low cash flow on a large amount of equity.

The longer the better, but keep in mind that many of these structures have severe prepayment penalties so using 10 year debt for a 3-year hold creates a problem. 

Purchase price: $90,000 Cash invested: $60,000 Buy and hold that I still have to this date.

I would hold the cash for keys idea in my back pocket until I heard what they have to say.
