Summary

AI-generated

Many STR investors use data tools like AirDNA incorrectly by letting revenue projections drive the deal rather than market context. A proforma should be used as a back-end protection tool to prevent mistakes, while market research and understanding competition should be the first steps in underwriting.

Key insights

  • Performance models and proformas are designed to protect you from making a bad investment, not to act as a sales pitch for a property's potential.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Relying solely on revenue projections from tools like AirDNA to justify a deal without first understanding the local competition and market requirements.
