They just want comps and reasons why I believe it’s assessed too high.

The prices are still pretty low there because (my guess is) the demand to live there isn't as high as a place like Quincy.

Here in Lake Tahoe it's quite competitive and adding amenities can improve booking rates more than a high end interior. 

The NC (RTP) and surrounding areas are very highly priced and most of them are townhomes with $150-$200 HOA fees which defeats the basic purpose.

The only thing I can really tell you is don't rush a process as great as this, make sure everything is as high quality as can be.

Now this is in a Class A area , house appraised at $600K in its dated condition , After updating it will be in the high $700s . 

In terms of cashflow, I high recommend checking Cleveland, Ohio where you could find a rental meeting 1% rule.

I put "paid" in quotes because we traded our last low income housing rental for it;) I like the Crimeshare buy low sell high concept or renting if you can.. that has to be wide open inventory.I personally spent most of the 90s in Timber..

I definitely agree that creating a space for incredible memories, having high quality service, and getting to know guests on a personal level are the best ways to attract repeat bookings.

The cash-flow won't be as high as Cincinnati or Cleveland but in return you will see those high gains in appreciation.
