@Danielle Torres — AI is great for tightening your underwriting and saving time, but it shouldn’t replace real-world validation.

A new WalletHub study ranked Huntsville among the top U.S. cities for jobs, based on job growth, hiring activity, wage strength, and overall economic stability.From an investing standpoint, this is worth paying attention to.Huntsville’s economy continues to be anchored by defense, aerospace, engineering, and advanced manufacturing.

@Marcus Robert I'd be happy to refer you to some DST brokers who help investors like yourself find suitable replacements.

Q4 2025 saw roughly 89,400 units come online, ending a historic run that peaked at nearly 160,000 units in Q3 2024.The South—long the engine of new supply—saw the sharpest deceleration, dropping from nearly 91,800 units in Q3 to about 47,500 in Q4.

Typically the vertical sewer stack in the house is cast iron and can be replaced with PVC.

The study looks at metrics like job growth consistency, wage gains, high-tech GDP concentration, and how well metros hold up when national momentum slows.From an investor lens, that matters more than boom-cycle spikes.Why Huntsville’s inclusion is notable:• High concentration of engineering, defense, and aerospace employment• Federal and long-term contract-driven job base reduces cycle risk• Continued in-migration even as other markets cool• Strong alignment between wage growth and housing demandThis isn’t a market built on tourism, speculative tech, or short-term capital inflows.

Agreed on not replacing human relationships with AI, but it's way more than a tool at this point.

Good point about the reverse-engineering and permit records - something I've recently discovered myself as well!

That ratio doesn't work without systems like these.AI in STR isn't about replacing your team.

So if you're going to hold your property for 30 or 40 years, tenants will need to find replacement jobs three or four times during this period.
