BP Community! 

Asheville: Asheville is in the Blue Ridge Mountains, so it's a very outdoors focused community.

Owner occ developments there is no value associated to the income approach so these props generally speaking will appreciate a lot more as the neighborhoods are much more desirable. builders the last thing they want to do is sell to investors if they are creating owner occupied communities.. rentals degrade the neighborhood and they will be sabotaging their own values to allow a bunch of investors to buy and rent out in their communities.So when you buy new builds keep in mind if its a build to rent community they will NOT appreciate like owner occupied neighborhoods.. might be best to find something already 3 to 5 years old where the stigma of renters dies down.. that would be best to protect your investment.

Agents are also susceptible to this, but tends to be more prevalent in the wholesaler community.

Quote from @Giovanni Rodriguez: Hi Biggerpockets community.

We have a dedicated team whose purpose is to ensure that our passive investors never feel disconnected from their properties.

Fortunately for our 100+ house community, the fire department was already on site battling the brush fire and about a dozen fire fighters frantically extinguished the 4 or 5 roofs burning.This is insignificant compared to what has happened in LA, Palisades, Malibu and Altadena however having lived through Hurricane Andrew and many other major storms even this experience was drastically more terrifying and chaotic. 

Cashiers is unincorporated Jackson County - where Highlands is its own municipality and able to act in more precise way that exact community. 

We also own an accounting/payroll firm and have a lot of MHPs, residential communities and apartment complexes as clients and have seen this happen a few times. 

Hi Alaina, welcome to the community!
