NORTH PORT Analysis Help

[James Calvert]

Hello! My name is James Ive been listening to BiggerPockets for a few years. bought my first house in North Port fl 3 years ago! Now I am trying to buy a 2nd and rent my current home long term. Im nervous to pull the trigger because I am seeing similar homes in my area that have been listed for rent for MONTHS... I want to know how to analyze markets to see if my neighborhood is even a good location to do this. There is alot of growth here with Wellen Park being built currently but it tends to bring wealthier people in where my home is a 900sf 2/2(not so desirable for them.  Anyone near North Port Id love to meet and talk real estate! otherwise any advice is welcome!
