The waterfront area downtown is beautiful for as far as the eye can see in both directions.As remote work takes hold and knowledge workers look to escape Seattle, I can definitely see it becoming an Austin-esque city in the PNW.

Often overlooked is the premium for storage space in the city.

I am working here in the Bay Area, and in a few cities in Ohio, Detroit, Missouri, and Kansas.

There are pros and cons to long term and short term from a rental management side, and purchase/acquisition.Long term = lower vacancy, lower expenses, potentially lower revenueShort Term = higher vacancy, higher expenses, potential for higher revenue, financing is more expensive than long term rentalsWatch out for local STR regulations, they vary from city to city.

I guess that means, there is healthy demand for rents in the metroplex.I am curious if there is a city or few Zip codes within Tulsa, Broken arrow, Bixby, Jenks and Owasso, that is preferred by prospective tenants ? 

Are there any on-line government sources of truth for any particular city's future infrastructure/expansion/city planning plans or any private company tracking these initiatives? 

I live in the city of NY and I am interested in deciding where to make my first investment since the markets that interest me are Providence RI, and Rochester NY.

City permits for this are way harder than most people think and most neighbors in a residential area will NOT want this next door to them (NIMBY).

I like the town and see the potential in the city and surrounding areas.

@Kim Huynh - Yes, never a good idea to pick a fight with the city.
