I'm happy to share thoughts on Bryson City as well as other markets here in Western NC, including the greater Asheville area, if you want to set up a call.

I would follow up with what is your goal in your real estate investment.  

A licensed agent can start sending you houses from the MLS and a Wholesaler can help send off market deals to you.Since you mentioned the BRRRR method it sounds like you will be financing the deal.

I don't see how they can come up with owner stays and hold nights.

I had expected lease up to be slightly faster. 

You might be able to pick up a used program on Ebay or Craigslist.

Or maybe half up front and half upon completion?  

Success, currently active, will update what our final sales price ends up with, fielding calls on the property already.

I don't venture outside of the OKC Metro much but it looks like overall rents have been up for you. 

Hey Jason,We have clients that pay between $750 up to thousands per year for tax prep.
