Trying to get data/any-all pertinent info on either of these locations.....possibly looking to invest here.

It gives you real data without fully committing.STR success often comes down to balancing guest experience with operational efficiency.

Rent is the most critical factor when evaluating a property, so we estimate it four times: software analysis, manual review, onsite inspection with property manager input, and a final check before listing.

I don't have data to put to my theory, but I believe there are diminishing returns with ever higher price points (hypothetical graph below).Does anyone have any data on this or can confirm? 

I finally got back into my account after a few weeks of login issues, so I’ll be catching up on all your comments.

Finally- my best performing STRs all have fun amenities- get a couple full size arcade games or set up a theater room with a projector and some big, cushy chairs.

Hi @Joel ClifftThe cash on cash in this property based on the numbers that you shared is 15% so it seems to be a good investment with the little data that I have, even though the GBR formula gives 11% which I believe is the reason Travis won't invest.One thing is that you look monthly estimates from different tools such as AirDNA, AirBnB, etc.

Your best approach is to show that the assessment isn’t supported by market data.

🙌You’re totally right — tools like Qualtrics/SurveyMonkey and SEMrush/SpyFu are powerful, but I’ve mostly seen them used for marketing/consumer research rather than for real estate investing decisions.That’s what I keep bumping into: plenty of great general platforms, but nothing that brings together real estate–specific data points like:• Voucher demand or housing authority activity (for S8)• Days on market for rentals in a micro-neighborhood• Vacancy + “desirability” indicators (crime/schools)Out of curiosity — if there were a tool that gave you that kind of “plug in an address → get all the market intelligence” insight in one place, what data would be the most valuable for you personally?
