I haven’t used STRsearch.com personally, but they seem to offer solid analytics for STRs.

Now, though, I have 25 years of data engineering and working with software engineering teams behind me, and these last 4 years I fiddled with modern open-source software like PostgreSQL for db, D3.js for interactive maps and analytics, CSS and SASS for elegance.

Here's the breakdown of my basic observations after ~2 weeks on each solution: Guesty Lite: - $39/listing/month (unclear if this includes standard 1% commission)- Superior iOS app (faster, locally cached, better organized)- Cleaner guest portal- Targeted to smaller portfolios (1-3) vs Pro (4+) - Clean HUD/dashboard for checkins/reservations- Excellent message automation that links automations in a templated flowchart design (best I've seen)- Awful analytics, similar to GfH (upsell to Guesty Pro)- Dynamic pricing, damage protection, lock management, liability, and outsourced communications (unique) all relatively expensive (aligning to Guesty's overall penchant for chasing ever-expanding upsells)Hospitable:- More third party integrations- Comprehensive analytics- Customizable dashboards are nice - Useful in-app/site help tours- iOS app is effectively a responsible website (slow, uncached, voids iOS design rules)- Messaging rule management can feel cluttered (dozen-plus rules to start?)

Anyone trying to sell you a course is trying to scam you, all the info is available online and the analytics data easy to purchase.

That's not a real number.But it sounds like one.HR asked how we'd measure the 10x.I said we'd "leverage analytics dashboards."

Yes, definitely have been taking it slow since I'm pretty analytical minded.

A great place to start.It depends where are you looking for, rentometer and zillow are sort of accurate in areas with enough similar comparables, if that is not your case, you have to rely more on look property by property to see if those are similar than yours.As agents we have access to history so that sometimes helps, if you have one, I would say to rely on his/her data.Investing is a very analytic job so I always recommend to run your number even when you have someone that is helping you.

But the data found only shows up to 2023.2) Employment - 1.3% up YoY (year over year) - Unemployment rate 2.7%3) Median Household Income - up ~ 4% YoY - average $63,421.4) Median Home Value - up ~ 6% YoY.5) Crime Rate - violent crime chance ~1 in 1,100 and property crime chance ~1 in 124 according to NeighborhoodScout’s analytic model.We are also a landlord friendly state.Outside of identifying a market to invest in, being familiar with cap rates, cash flow analysis and asset class and it's related characteristics.

I know there is a lot of debate on the forums about Appfolio vs Buildium, but my background is in data & analytics and I always felt Buildium was a superior product (at least for what I need/want it to do as far as my management is concerned).

I also use the Vrbo analytics and graphs which display prices and upcoming demand.I have seasonal pricing, holiday pricing, special event pricing where I override the recommended pricing.
