These areas still have a great rental demand and not overbuilt.Areas like Northern Liberties, fishtown, point breeze have a lot of options, but also a lot of struggling landlords as there is a great number of new construction high rises creating a lot of supply in the nearby market.

It has a slightly more vacation-friendly vibe with its arts scene, annual events, and outdoor activities that draw visitors regularly.Since you're targeting STR occupancy over 50% without extreme seasonal dips, you might consider neighborhoods near popular attractions, like Tulsa’s Downtown Arts District or the lake areas nearby, which offer steady, diverse visitor interest.

If you're in Frisco or any nearby Texas city, and are willing to accept an intern to mentor who'd be willing to show me the ropes, please do...At this point finding a mentor in the summer (anytime without school) would be my best card at the moment.
