The Vets who do find value in buyer representation can pay for it if they feel it's worth it, but I would imagine most won't and they'll just go to the listing Agent like people do in most every other country and it's probably going to work out just fine.90% of the time the buyer Agent is really just doing everything they can do to push the buyer to sold.

hot tubs in that area i would not imagine are THAT big of a necessity. they are going to be more of a non-negotiable in mountainous/woodsy/lakes regions, like in the smokies you really need to have one... however, the maintenance and headaches are notable when you have a hot tub at a STR. really only do it if you absolutely have to. when you ran the #s with that software, i wonder if the properties that do have hot tubs, also had other amenities that were driving the ADR up, and that's what you were seeing. know what i mean?

I imagine you're at Carson?

I have not done a lot of research yet, but I imagine that others in town are begining to wonder about their options as well.Being creative and building are the parts that I'm passionate about, so I'm not interested in cookie cutter designs or paying others to do what I consider to be the fun part.

I wake up and check the app and I go to sleep glued to the app.
