Description

On this week’s episode, Avery is joined by Amy Morehead. Amy shares how turning a family chalet in the Smokies into an STR during her mother’s Alzheimer’s caregiving season sparked a value-add strategy focused on “hot-mess” properties, smart renovations, and self-management. She explains why high-impact finishes beat flashy amenities for appraisal value and how she hunts deals with high days-on-market near the Smokies and along Kentucky’s Bourbon Trail. Amy also talks numbers, the refi-later mindset, and the education-plus-mentorship approach that helped her triple revenue after taking management in-house.
