This guy is a CEO who is promoting his website.There is very little real data on mid-term rentals, so if you are considering them, please be on high alert when picking a market.

Note the insurance pays all but the deductible but rebuilds take effort from the asset manager/owner.NAR just pulled down their ADU data on the premise of it being dated (it was getting old but it was the most complete source of ADU valuations).  

How are these deal websites getting this data, or did the marketing team mess up?

Week of December 29, 2025 | Market SnapshotAs we close out the year, housing data delivered a surprisingly strong finish.

With markets feeling more segmented lately, I’ve been rethinking how I anchor ARV during early deal analysis.Instead of relying on a single comp or peak-sale comparison, I’ve been leaning toward:• ARV ranges (low / mid / high) rather than one number• Heavier weighting on the most recent 60–90 day sales• Noting spread between list vs. sold prices in the same pocket• Treating appreciation as a bonus, not a givenI’m finding that even within the same zip code, buyer demand and pricing tolerance can shift block by block depending on condition, financing availability, and buyer profile.Curious how others are handling market data right now:Are you tightening ARV assumptions, using wider ranges, or changing how you comp altogether?

I’m also a licensed contractor, so a lot of my focus sits at the intersection of acquisition, renovation, and operations.Lately that’s meant spending a lot of time on STR demand, pricing, and execution …not just what looks good on paper, but what actually holds up after hundreds of stays.We share a monthly STR market snapshot with real demand data, pricing pressure, and upcoming risk/opportunity windows.

I’m very systems/data-oriented, so my main goal is to build a simple, repeatable “numbers” operating system for rentals. i.e. clear cash-flow visibility and consistent tracking. so I can make low-stress, data-driven decisions and manage risk.

Week of January 19, 2026 in ReviewInflation data landed right where markets expected, while housing contracts slowed during a seasonally tricky part of the year.

I LOVE data.

Economic data this morning reinforced the same theme markets have been grappling with all week: cooling but not collapsing.
