The better priced comps are actually on the other side of Blue Ridge and south of 79th where I'm seeing sold properties going for closer to your asking price.

-matthew I'm actually looking into obtaining either a 3 family or a mixed property (2 fam + storefront) in the next 4-5 months in the Brooklyn area (bay ridge, benson, dyker, but I'm heavily interested in looking into the same neighborhoods you invested in).Were these just phenomenal deals to get you a rent roll of $8600 per month (And you said this is low end) for a 1.2mil place?

I grew up and invest around the triad (live in Oak Ridge now) and went to school at NC State in Raleigh. 

Lately I've been looking into Blue Ridge, GA, Poconos, PA and Bryson City, NC.

I am a newby and am looking to purchase a vacation rental property around Blue Ridge, GA.

@Peter Castrianni if the Smokies are out of budget for you then look towards North GA(Blue Ridge Area), or West NC over towards Asheville and surrounding towns.

I'm an agent and currently own a two family house have in Glen Ridge, but definitely want to pick something up at the shore for personal/investment purposes.

The ridge shingles are starting to lift; seems premature for a 1 yr old roof.

Looking to purchase my first STR in Blue Ridge, GA, or the Smokeys.

Smoky Mountains Galveston, TX Alabama Gulf Coast Blue Ridge MountainsKissimmee (right outside of Orlando) Miami Henderson (right outside of Vegas) Nashville ScottsdaleThey all have their pros/cons, but these are the ones I'd recommend.
