NorCal's highest potential vacation rentals

[Tiffany Shan]

Starting with North and South Lake Tahoe (other cities coming soon), we run all the homes on the MLS through our system to try and predict potential short-term rental income, using 3 factors: location, #BR's, and sq ft. Imperfect of course, but we've backtested on a few dozen of our friends' homes and so far we're ahead of existing data providers.

We then take the top 10% and manually go through them with local brokers from each side of the lake that we consider savvy & experienced, to choose 2 homes a week that are particularly interesting.

Tahoe's a really expensive market, so yield isn't as strong as in other places. We're working to add cities, but we happened to know way more people with rental homes in Tahoe, so we started there :) 

It's free to subscribe (yes, partner brokers' names are attached, that's why they help us) and we'll start sending out next Monday. If you'd like us to work on another city, let me know: [email protected]

PS - if you're wondering why we do this, we're ramping up to offer vacation home loans.
