You still need to be involved and watch your property manager to ensure things are running well, but that takes less time than self-managing.

Watch the BiggerPockets podcasts.

All the videos I’ve watched and the books I’ve read have helped me expand my mindset and approach.

The #1 determinant is the Tenant Pool.If you don't believe us, try putting several Class D tenants in Class A apartment buildings and watch what happens.

I can see how Gatlinburg/Sevierville/Pigeon Forge has an oversupply (even though SMNP receives the most annual visitors per year of any national park and double that of the #2 NP)… though, from what we’ve watched in the last year and gathered from our realtor in Knox, both Knoxville and Chattanooga homes are still going for over asking price which would indicate an under supply, no?
