Dustin was beyond great to work with! Every property we toured was prepped and reviewed prior to our showing. Dustin was super insightful on how each property could, or wouldn’t, work as a STR. In the end he helped us see the vision and potential for the property we purchased. Highly recommend using Dustin, we definitely are with our next purchase.

Dustin is the best realtor in the north Georgia area. I found him via BiggerPockets realtor finder. Not really expecting much, I gave him a call and he answered all my questions then some. Extremely knowledgeable and great to talk to. Met him a few months later and he showed us around the area and showed us some homes to check out. We later bought from him. The whole process was about 6 months as we were dragging our feet a bit on our end. He was super patient and never pushy at all. Great dude and we still keep in touch. I’d consider him more of a friend now. Was not expecting my experience with his company to be so good. If you’re on the fence, just give him a call. He’ll answer any questions you can think of. I appreciate Dustin and his team a lot.

Just closed on our first investment property with the help of Dustin and his team. We purchased a lake lot and plan to build a STR cabin. Dustin is awesome! Had a great experience and would now consider him a friend and mentor. Although the purchase is over, we plan to keep in touch throughout the process and continue to rely on his expertise in the STR realm. Also plan to work with him on our next purchase as well! Thanks Dustin!

Dustin is the real deal. He brings something most agents simply don't have: he actually understands the STR space. He knew what makes a property perform, not just what makes it sell.
He coached us through the whole process, patient with my questions, straight with me when something wasn't a fit, and always thinking a step ahead.
We're still in touch today, and I'll keep working with him on future deals. If you're buying a short-term rental and want someone who knows the business side, not just the transaction, call Dustin. Highly recommend!!

There are truly no words to express what a blessing Dustin has been to our family.
When we first started looking into investing in a short term rental in Blue Ridge, we were excited but also terrified. We had no experience, no roadmap, and no idea what we were doing. From day one, Dustin brought an incredible level of knowledge, honesty, and reassurance that gave us the confidence to move forward.
Thanks to his guidance, we purchased an amazing property that has exceeded our expectations. It’s performing exceptionally well in the Blue Ridge market and has even reached the top 1% of properties. We genuinely believe we wouldn’t be where we are today without Dustin’s expertise.
Now that we’re looking to purchase our second investment property, we continue to rely on him because his knowledge and experience are simply invaluable. What makes Dustin different is that he is so much more than a realtor. He’s a trusted advisor and mentor who takes the time to coach you, answer every question, and share thoughtful insights that help you make the best decisions, not just the fastest ones.
One of the qualities I appreciate most is that Dustin is never pushy. At no point have we felt pressured to buy or make a decision. Instead, he genuinely looks out for our best interests and wants us to succeed. That level of integrity is incredibly rare.
Whether you’re buying your first home, selling a property, or looking to build a successful short term rental portfolio, I cannot recommend Dustin highly enough. He truly cares about his clients, is passionate about what he does, and goes above and beyond every step of the way.
Dustin, thank you for believing in us, guiding us, and helping us build something that has already changed our lives. We are incredibly grateful and look forward to working with you for many years to come.

Dustin is a fantastic Realtor and was a huge help during our search for our investment! He's experienced himself with STRs and knows the N.Ga market well. Even after our closing, his advice and recommendations have been a huge help as we made some upgrades and started renting out our cabin! We never would have pulled the trigger without Dustin's help.

Dustin was amazing theoughout the home buying process for our first STR! Buying out of town is hard, but having someone in the area who knew the market made it so much smoother. He's knowledge, experienced, laid-back, easy to work with, and realistic. We've bought a lot of homes, due to being in the military, and Dustin was the first agent who truly paid attention to our vision and our buy box. The cabin we ended up buying was not one we found on Trulia or Zillow, but one he sent the day it hit the market because he knew what we wanted. Dustin introduced us to the area, the culture, the amenities, took us to the cabins to tour, and advocated for us during the closing process. Couldn't have asked for a better home-buying experience! If you're on the hunt for an STR or even a vacation home, Dustin is your guy!

If you’re expanding your real estate portfolio especially with investment properties or short-term rentals Dustin Taylor is the agent you want.
We recently purchased an investment property in Blue Ridge, and Dustin negotiated and closed the deal seamlessly. His professionalism, knowledge, and expertise stood out from start to finish. He approaches every deal as a business, not just a property.
Before writing the offer, we analyzed the market, built a strong comp set, and ensured the numbers made sense. If you’re serious about building wealth through real estate, Dustin delivers.

My wife and I started an STR business with the intent of purchasing a property in North Georgia and we got connected with Dustin. From the very beginning, Dustin was helpful, informative and shared all his knowledge and experiences on his own STR business. He worked with us in perfect balance between allowing us to make decisions and providing us feedback both positive and negative for us to consider. In the end he recommended a property with tremendous previous STR performance and future potential. Throughout the entire process, Dustin was always very accommodating and responsive to our needs. I would recommend Dustin to anyone looking for an STR and will be using him again in the future when I am ready to expand my business.

Dustin was amazing to work with! We’re based in California, and he made the whole process of buying a vacation home in the North Georgia mountains so easy, even from a distance. He knows the area inside and out and really took the time to understand what we were looking for. Dustin kept us updated every step of the way, did virtual tours for us, and made sure all the details were handled without any stress on our end. Thanks to him, we found the perfect place with incredible mountain views and our vacation rental is already active! If you’re looking for an agent who’s friendly, reliable, and great at what they do, Dustin’s your guy
