Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge are both extremely strong right now , with most people overpaying in the years that you mentioned and simply not KNOWING OR CARING  how to properly run a top notch Air BNB. 

That kind of networking plus honest cash-flow analysis can open more doors than simply chasing rumored off-market listings.Interestingly, I recently saw a property here in Phoenix (ARMLS #6757476) that sold for around $450K in October 2021, then resold in December 2024 for $1.8 million.. that’s an eye-popping $1.35 million jump in just three years.

My hiccups from a percentile basis are minute to folks with a fraction of my portfolio simply because of the aforementioned statement.

I found simply raising rent to the max allowed is better than an eviction they move with out all the fuss  :)

We do have a house we rent in the area and simply love it.

A new build needs to perform better than that to make it worth your time, all the risks and capital concentration.thanks for the advice everyone and would be happy to connect with you: @Bryant Brislin @Dave Wells @Leilah Davis @Joshua Stewart I have been building 15 to 20 spec houses a year now for 7 or 8 years.. average NET NET NET profit is between 10 to 15% of gross selling price. and if we hit 20% thats a big win.. my price points have been starter or rental houses in FLA that sold in tehe 250s and those are simply not worth doing..

Quote from @Bhushan Shinkre: Few corrections, tenant simply decided not to pay rent and took further action of asking for refund of all prior payments (legally made via Baselane), which Baselane paid out no questions asked.

If you’re looking for a single-family home under $200,000 and you don’t care what city or county it’s in and you simply wanted to meet the 1% percent rule, you might be able to find that.

Simply be a calm stand off landlord who is expecting his tenants to honor the lease - Not you accommodate their personal situation.

Have to thank God, now I know what to look for in a place I sure as hell won't be renting!!
