SANTA ROSA BEACH, Fla., July 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- The Short Term Shop has been ranked #11 in the United States on the 2026 RealTrends Top 1000. Out of 1,000 ranked teams nationwide, The Short Term Shop is the only team that focuses exclusively on short term rental and vacation rental investment properties.
