Veteran-Owned. Woman-Led. Hospitality-Obsessed.
Whether you’re buying your first cabin or your fifth rental, we help you…
Identify the Right Area
We know the differences between Maggie Valley, Waynesville, Sylva, Asheville outskirts, and more. Some areas are STR-friendly, others have strict restrictions — and we’ll make sure you don’t buy into a headache.
Evaluate Properties for ROI
Thinking Airbnb? We assess every cabin's income potential, not just its curb appeal. We’ll provide rental projections, seasonal occupancy trends, and red flags (like poor access roads, septic issues, or zoning red tape).
Guide You Through Every Step
From loan pre-approval to inspection, closing, and post-purchase setup — we’re your local boots on the ground. If you’re buying remotely, we handle everything and keep you in the loop with videos, walkthroughs, and calls.
We know how to sell in this unique market to both lifestyle buyers and STR investors. Here's what we offer sellers:
Accurate Pricing Strategy
We don’t rely on Zillow. We run hyper-local comps, factor in your rental history (if any), and show you exactly how to price for profit and speed.
Pre-List Consultation & Staging Advice
A fresh pine wreath, the right throw pillows, and better lighting? We’ll suggest staging tweaks to increase perceived value and photography appeal.
Professional Marketing & Syndication
We list on the MLS, but also target investor buyers through our STR management channels, email lists, and social reach. Maximum visibility = more offers.
Remote-Owner Friendly
Out of town? No problem. We handle showings, cleaning, maintenance, and even minor repairs to get your property market-ready.
We aren’t just agents, we’re active STR managers, too. That means we understand what truly performs. We Help You:
Avoid cabins in STR-restricted zones
Estimate realistic rental income & expenses
Understand STR taxes, regulations, insurance needs
Spot STR red flags (access roads, water access, HOA limits)
Transition directly into our full-service STR management
Bonus:
We also help with real estate portfolio building, whether you want 1 high-performing property or a mix of LTR + STR investments.
