The Truth About Buying “Ugly” Cabins That Cash Flow with Amy Morehead

from The Short Term Show · host 8 Figure Airbnb and Short Term Rental Real Estate Investor Avery Carl

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.   How to connect with Amy:  https://mapleleafpromise.com/https://strfixitpros.com/https://www.facebook.com/Strfixitpros/@STRFIXITPROS How to connect with Avery: The Short Term Shop - https://theshorttermshop.com/ Short Term Shop Plus - stsplus.com Follow Avery Carl on Instagram Follow Avery Carl on TikTok Join the Short Term Shop Facebook group Check out the Short Term Shop on YouTube   For more information on how to get into short term rentals, read Avery’s books: Smarter Short Term Rentals - Buy it on Amazon Short-Term Rental, Long-Term Wealth: Your Guide to Analyzing, Buying, and Managing Vacation Properties – Buy it on Amazon
