First STR, Piney Point MD Question

[Eric Sebast]

Hey All,

Looking for our first STR, and was looking in White Stone, VA, but expanded the search as there Isn't anything there ticking the boxes (looking for a 3 bed, 2 bath home right on the water with an expansive water view). Came accross this house in Piney Point, MD, but the AirDNA numbers don't make sense to me (increase drastically when I change it to 5 bathrooms from 3), then found it on AirBNB (but just listed as a 2bd/2bath home at just $280...

Looking for a little help to figure out what realistic expectations are, I don't wanna pull the trigger on it and find out its only gonna cashflow at half what I was thinking it would.

@Robin Simon, it is a 3 bedroom, 5 bath home, when I load the address in AirDNA it comes up as a 3/3, when I change it to 3/5 is when it jumps up, goes from about $80k to the $135k projected. I bounced around and its at $295 a night next July timeframe as well with discounts for weekly/monthly stays.

I hadn't thought about the 4.7 rating hurting them so badly, thanks.

Would it be out of the ordinary to ask the listing agent for the airbnb rental history so we can see what it truly is bringing in?
