This is the last video I’ll ever shoot at Sunset Point, my Smith Lake property… because it just sold for full price. Not because it wasn’t performing—this house crushed $165K–$185K/year. But I ran the numbers, did a return on equity audit, and saw an opportunity to double down by repositioning and redeploying the cash from this into another property with more upside potential. Listen to find out why we design for the next buyer just as much as we do for guests.
