My wife graduated from School there in Black Mountain.

I used to be a smallish town with a lot of charm and character, plus it's in the mountains with is a big draw. 

The properties close to the mountains (Ashville, the Smoky Mountains etc) are relatively less expensive, but so far I have seen their annual AirDNA revenue to be under $100K and so the net cashflow is not impressive. 

Our argument is - especially in the geographic region of the NC Blue Ridge Mountains - there is a strong desire for tiny homes, vacation rentals, and investments.

You have a balcony with a view of the mountains, but nowhere have you shown me a good pic of this.
