Turn on (only) one same watt incandescent bulb in each unit and see if the meters spin identical, or if one  is a little faster.Running the A/C?

Here is a scenario and questioning how I may project nightly rate and occupancy:I'm going to round up numbers to make it easy.House for sale that is 3/2 and is essentially identical to a local (1 mile away) high performing STR, same rooms, baths and beds and yard etc.The high performing STR has over 200 reviews and is 4.85 in AIRBNB.It is charging an average of $200 a night with dynamic pricing and looks like it is booked at about 80% occupancy.Assuming I buy the new place, fix it up and outfit it the same as the local STR, what % could I expect just starting out relative to an established STR in the same market (neighborhood)?

I want to know what you would do so I am better equipped in the future because there are additional properties in the area with a similar situation.
