In this case, your price per square foot would be $167, and you could estimate the value of each property using this formula.You can then make adjustments up and down, such as if you have a pool in the primary, or if one house has no garage, or sit on a relatively bigger lot . . . 

I just ran rent comps on our 2 rentals here to see what I should adjust those rents to and one comped at $15k/mo.

I'll make sure I make this adjustment.

But the State of AZ, overall, still has regulations against restricting STRs.....they just loosened them up in some areas...I agree with @AJ Wong that the bust and the boom are over and the STR market will adjust to 'normal'

Here's why.People are drawn to our area due to the absence of natural disasters, low property taxes, home prices close to the national median, and a thriving tech and research hub, coupled with the life sciences sector.Considering the ongoing influx of people and the likely rate adjustments announced by the Fed for later in this year, we anticipate prices actually  rising as buyers enter the market.

Quote from @Michael Plaks: Your math is off, it's much more complicated then that, but the idea described can basically accomplish what you want.Here's how I came up with it:*Assumed sale happens in 2027*Assume 2018 tax changes are NOT extended*Adjust all brackets from 2017 to 2027 using IRS inflation from 2017-2024 and 2% thereafterNumbers are a little different as I posted some rough calculations.  

Tax rates are very high level, so you will want to adjust that as you pick a more specific location to model out.  

There are pricing adjustments for every little thing that many investors fail to consider.

Definitely don't buy a deal just to buy, but make adjustments as we go through different cycles and stay in the game. 

The struggle here was financing the purchase through the llc because of the way the llc we've been filing with losses and had to adjust certain things last minute to make the funding work.
