Data & Analytics on Short Term rentals in LA & Orange County

[Kevin Lefeuvre]

Hello Everyone,

I love this forum and how members share information.

I am trying to get data, prior to investment, in cities in LA and OC. Found insideairbnb.com as a very useful site with detail numbers in LA neighborhoods, but they don't have numbers in OC.

Airdna.co seems to offer more cities but it's expensive to buy reports (without even knowing what's inside), for several cities to compare.

Has anyone been there to share some data from Orange County? I am looking into coastal cities (or near to coast) with approved ordinances only and interested in average price/night and occupancy rate mainly. 

Thank you!

Thanks Michael. It did appear interesting at a first glance. However it's not what I am looking for. The good thing about insideairbnb is that it scans the actual airbnb site (probably once a week or daily), and gives analytics. That's all I need. 
Mashvisors wants to be "smart" and help directly recommending investments, but it can't. As an example for the city of Newport Beach, it gave me 2 properties (trial only gives 2 free) which are both under HOA, where airbnb are illegal. In fact those houses CAN'T be on airbnb and the system just applies general city ratios on any investment (I guess that's how it works).

I also checked on their other data like the cities rated as airbnb friendly eetc, and their data is not up-to-date. For instance Anaheim came as a 10 (means totally VR friendly), which was true until June 2016 but things have changed 180 degrees since then.
