📉 Ever wondered why your lender ignores those impressive AirDNA projections? 📉

📉 You show them $8,000 a month in estimated income…
Strong occupancy… perfect comps… and they still say, “We can’t use these numbers.”

🏦 Here’s the truth: lenders don’t lend on potential - they lend on proven performance.

AirDNA is a great market tool, but it’s not documentation. It’s a projection engine built for investors, not for underwriters. Lenders want verifiable proof - real booking histories, payout statements, and consistent cash flow they can underwrite.

That's why so many STR loans fall apart right before closing. The borrower relies on AirDNA instead of showing the numbers lenders actually trust.

📊 In our latest video, Short-Term Rental Loans: Why AirDNA Numbers Don’t Impress Lenders, we break down exactly how to make your STR file lender-ready.

You’ll see how to:
– present hybrid data (verified bookings + market projections)
– prove revenue even with limited history
– leverage new DSCR programs built specifically for short-term rentals

đź’¬ If you want your Airbnb or VRBO deal to fund smoothly, you need to show performance, not potential.

📽️ Watch the full breakdown: 

DM us your property address, and we'll show you how to make your STR data lender-ready before you apply.
