Success on a flip lives or dies on three numbers: acquisition price, rehab scope, and ARV. I source off-market deals from my network, walk the property with you to scope rehab honestly, and run comps that reflect what the finished product will actually sell for. Not what Zillow guesses.
If the spread doesn't work, I'll tell you. Plenty of agents will close any deal in front of them. I'd rather you walk away from a bad one than close a flip that loses money at sale.
Buy-and-hold is about cap rate, not vibe. I help investors model real numbers, purchase price plus rehab against realistic Middle Tennessee market rents, accounting for vacancy, property tax, and insurance.
Neighborhood matters more than people think. Two zip codes can look identical on a spreadsheet and behave very differently when it comes to tenant turnover, maintenance calls, and five-year appreciation. I know which Middle Tennessee neighborhoods rent fast and which look good on paper but bleed in practice.
Nashville's STR market is one of the largest in the country and one of the most regulated. Before showing you a property I check the zoning. Whether it qualifies for Type 1 (owner-occupied) or Type 2 (non-owner-occupied), whether the neighborhood has STR caps, and whether HOA rules will kill the play before you close.
I run occupancy and ADR projections through real data and verify against active hosts in the same neighborhood. If the numbers only work assuming 95% occupancy, the deal is dead. The good ones still pencil at 60 to 65%.
If you're underwriting deals in Nashville, Sumner County, Davidson County, or the surrounding region, send me what you're looking at. I'll give you a real read.
