Her story

The operator's edge behind the advice.

1

She builds them

As a third-generation member of The Tunney Group, Erin has hands-on experience on new-construction projects and has helped design buildings around short-term-rental performance.

2

She has owned and operated them

Erin previously owned and operated a portfolio of short-term rentals she built with The Tunney Group, giving her firsthand experience tracking occupancy, nightly rates, furnishing budgets, and management fees on a real P&L.

3

She sells them to investors like you

As a licensed Realtor, she puts that experience on your side of the table: sourcing units that can perform, negotiating with a builder's eye, and helping you operate profitably from day one.

Why investors work with Erin

Erin helps investors identify Nashville STRs positioned for stronger performance—and spot the risks that could erode future ROI.

Short-term rentals surged after Covid, but not every unit was built in a location or configuration optimized for performance. As some owners exit, Erin's experience on every side of the deal helps buyers evaluate opportunities with a clear operator's perspective.

1

Do not get stuck with a cash-flow-losing unit

Occupancy problems trace back to location, layout, review history, and bed count. Erin knows the Nashville submarkets street by street.

2

Do not buy repairs disguised as a deal

Erin comes from a building family and has built STR properties from the ground up, so she can help you identify construction and maintenance risks before they eat into your ROI.

3

Closing day is the halfway point

Erin advises on furnishing, marketing, pricing, and management so your occupancy and nightly rate have a real chance to hit the pro forma.
