So, the actual increase to market rent will be much lower.

Particularly I am looking at some 6-plex and 8-plex units in my target market.

I don't know about other areas in TX, but I keep a close eye on Austin-SAN corridor, and I'm familiar with the market in Kyle, New Braunfels and NE San Antonio.

Quote from @Mark Simpson: Interesting use case for ChatGPT Operator:I asked it to do a market analysis and compare a random Airbnb listing to others in the area.

However, I made the decision when interest rate was lower and there was support for an appreciating real estate market.

If you have a lot of family in OK, that can be a great place to start assessing since you have dedicated boots on the ground, as well as a reason to visit.Don't overthink the analyzing of markets when you are still figuring things out.

If I were you, then I would get the pieces ready, but seek off market/on market projects that make sense for you.

Our market is somewhat shifting, but it is still showing signs of thriving, with many opportunities for growth. 

Housing is still affordable compared to other markets, which keeps renters and investors coming.

You’ll want to make sure your property is styled and stocked to fit the target market catering to what Big Bear has to offer and what guests expect.
