Unlike STRs, a platform that analyzes vacancy, pricing, etc. does not exist. 

Now you will need dedicated leasing agents to supplement PM's because the # of doors this will take it's just not realistic to put it all on so few PM's, so we got at least 4 leasing agents.

Also, how would members start the actually business platform to where me and her are 50-50 partners?

This suggests some volatility in the market.Investment Considerations- Long-term Potential: The presence of a dedicated economic development partnership and active city government suggests efforts to promote growth, which could benefit real estate investors in the long run.- Property Management: With companies like Champion Investments managing a large portfolio of properties in the area, there seems to be a robust infrastructure for property management, which could be beneficial for out-of-town investors.- Market Knowledge: Local real estate companies like RE/MAX Select, with their 18 full-time agents, indicate a strong local real estate community that could provide valuable market insights.In conclusion, Shelby's real estate market shows potential for investment, particularly given its price growth and strategic location.
