Additive cycle, both Tier 1 unchanged. No #deal-flow replies were pending action this cycle. The best find is 712 Octagon Drive in Gatlinburg โ a genuinely new documented-yield Smokies deal clearing the 13% bar, the first in several cycles. NJ Shore had an unusually productive cycle for data-quality cleanup, resolving four separate MLS/price conflicts that had been open for multiple refreshes โ but it also reopened 1611 River Rd, which was confidently removed as a bad add just two cycles ago. Six new NJ/LBI multi-family finds were added to Tier 4, all over the size threshold and without income data, so they're awareness-tier only. Total 137 โ 143.

Re-verified ACTIVE this cycle, price unchanged. No 2025/2026 figure surfaced despite a direct search โ still only the 2024 figure. The income phrasing ("grossed over $X... with AvantStay") remains PM-reported marketing language, not literally labeled "documented" โ worth keeping in mind on confidence.

Pigeon Forge / Smokies
Both Tier 1 re-confirmed ACTIVE, unchanged (Tilda Hilltop's 2026 pace figures still unconfirmed). New T2-23 (712 Octagon Drive, $659,900, $87,568/2025 doc, 13.27% yield) is the best documented-yield find in several cycles. Two Tier 2 cuts (1716 Ridgecrest, 2350 Kerr Rd) both strengthen already-passing DSCRs. Kerr Rd cluster (2079/2083/2087) hit a URL-pattern breakage on primary sources โ status only aggregator-confirmed this cycle.
NJ Shore (Belmar / OG / Bradley Beach)
An unusually productive data-cleanup cycle: 123 Main Ave price firmed, 150 Lake Ave + 68 Mt Tabor Way MLS conflicts resolved. But 1611 River Rd โ confidently removed 7/16 as a bad add โ is now back in question after new evidence surfaced. 500 Park Place Ave went pending. 827 13th Ave continues rising. All 3 OG duplex plays held ACTIVE with no material change.
Cape San Blas / Gulf FL
125 Parkside Cir MLS/price conflict resolved ($515,000, MLS 319901). 138 Cape Dunes + 654 Seacliff both re-confirmed unchanged. 162 Cape Dunes Dr remains unconfirmable on Cape San Blas Realty's own feed for a 2nd straight cycle โ stays capped, do not chase without documented actuals. Two low-confidence signals (290 Boardwalk Ave, 6138 CR 30-A) need a live check next cycle.
LBI
20 W 87th St held at $1,149,000, no further cut yet โ still the highest-leverage LBI watch item. 4505-4507 Ocean Blvd gained a new documented income data point ($177K avg 2022-24). Six new NJ/LBI multi-family T4s added, all over the size threshold with no income data. "North Surf City $204K income" lead remains unpinned.
