Any investors in Oxford, MS?

Hi BP,

I'm visiting relatives in Oxford MS this Christmas and am interested in the RE environment in that area.  It's a College football town of around 25,000, (Ole Miss) and I was wondering if anyone on BP has looked into Oxford or has any property there.  Maybe someone in Memphis has some insight on this.  Student rentals, alumni vacation homes (for Ole miss games), developing land.  Anybody doing this or thinking about it in this area?

Thanks for sharing...

My partner owns several rentals and an apartment in Oxford in and around the square.  Prices are high for homes.  They do rent their primary residence out about 3-4 times per year during football games on a weekend basis at about $3,300 per weekend. 

Rents are high and homes rent out fast from his experience.  Mostly college students even off campus. 

Good luck
