The Smokies economy is pretty much tourism based, and the cabins are more str friendly than not in my experience.

Yes, there are some but we also have tourism, technology, government contractors, and many other industries here. feel free to reach out if you ever want to chat about Orlando. 

@Bob GillarI work as a realtor in Galveston which is a primarily tourism based town.

Tourism folks are saying right now that it is probably another year before the big conventions come back to town, due to lead time they need to book and organize.Hopefully you have better luck or different or better product than some of the current folks.

Prime areas like the Lakes district in the north, Tuscany, Amalfi, etc.. will always have significant tourism so property values should be safe.  

They’re helping bring in tourism dollars, helping seasonal workers find short-term housing and marketing the city.

The area took a tremendous hit from Hurricane Michael 2018 so many rental houses were wiped out along with the tourism infrastructure.
