DealCheck equivalent for STRs?

Jeff Costa
Posted

Is there an equivalent software product to DealCheck for short-term rentals? The tool seems to focus on LTRs, BRRRRR, flips, and wholesalers. I would like to be able to quickly evaluate an STR in the same way DealCheck enables you to "thumbnail" an LTR deal.

Any ideas on a substitute tool?

Quote from @Jeff Costa:

Thanks @Jeffrey Albaum. Looks like AirDNA can get me the topline estimates, but nothing below the line as you stated. This feels like a gap in the market for a SaaS company to fill...

STRs ROI is almost entirely driven by the accuracy of your occupancy rate, which is also notoriously hard to approximate due to vast differences in pricing strategies, management effectiveness, and goals of owners/managers, not all of whom wish to rent a place out 365 days/year, but rather block it off for any number of reasons, even sometimes by errors in their channel manager tools.
Your best estimate is pairing the high level dashboard data with a property by property breakdown of the micro community you’re looking to invest in, understanding that just because someone has a place priced at $1k/night with 3 days open a year does NOT mean it’s renting out at that price.
