Every successful STR investment starts with six core metrics. AirROI provides all of them for free through Atlas and the Revenue Calculator — the same data institutional investors pay thousands per month to access.
Is there demand? Occupancy tells you what percentage of available nights are being booked. Markets below 45% face saturation risk; markets above 65% indicate strong demand relative to supply.
See occupancy data →What can you charge? ADR varies over 5x between budget and luxury markets. A market with $350 ADR at 55% occupancy often outearns one with $150 ADR at 75% occupancy.
See pricing data →The complete picture. RevPAR combines pricing power and booking volume into a single metric. It is the best way to compare markets head-to-head and the metric institutional investors prioritize.
What will you actually earn? AirROI's Revenue Calculator provides transparent estimates with comparable properties, so you can see exactly which listings drive the projection.
Try the calculator →Is the market saturated? Markets with rapid supply growth face occupancy compression. AirROI tracks active listing counts over time so you can spot oversupply before committing capital.
See market trends →How consistent is the income? Beach and ski destinations show 30-40 point occupancy swings between peak and off-season. Year-round urban markets provide more stable cash flow for leveraged investments.
From initial market screen to ongoing monitoring, AirROI provides the data at every stage of the STR investment lifecycle. Comparing 10 markets on AirDNA costs $2,500+ per month in subscriptions. On AirROI: $0.

The STR market is entering a healthier growth cycle in 2026, driven by data-driven investing and moderating supply growth (Rabbu 2026 STR Outlook). Here are the market categories showing the strongest investment signals.
Consistent tourism demand, regulatory stability, and proven STR track records. These markets combine solid occupancy (43-54%) with strong ADR, delivering reliable cash flow for investors.
Lower entry costs with improving returns. Markets like Chattanooga, Bentonville, and Duluth offer cap rates 2-3 points higher than saturated primary markets, with less competition.
World Cup 2026 host cities across North America will see significant demand spikes. Historical data from previous World Cups shows 20-40% revenue increases in host cities during tournament periods.
Lower operating costs, favorable exchange rates, and growing digital nomad demand create high-yield opportunities for investors comfortable with international markets.
These are directional highlights — not a substitute for property-level analysis. Use AirROI's Atlas to verify current data for any market worldwide.
“I was spending $500/month on AirDNA just to screen three markets. AirROI's Atlas let me analyze a dozen cities in an afternoon — for free. The revenue calculator confirmed my target property would cash-flow before I made the offer.”

Occupancy rates (demand), ADR (pricing power), annual revenue projections, comparable property performance, seasonality patterns, and supply trends. AirROI provides all of these free through Atlas and the Revenue Calculator, with API access for deeper analysis at $0.01 per call.
Top US markets combine strong ADR, regulatory stability, and consistent demand. New Orleans, Las Vegas, and Orlando lead for year-round tourism traffic (Rabbu 2026 STR Outlook). World Cup 2026 host cities offer event-driven upside. Use AirROI's Atlas to compare any market using live data rather than relying on static rankings.
Use AirROI's Atlas to search multiple markets and compare occupancy, ADR, RevPAR, supply growth, and seasonality side by side. The polygon and lasso tools let you analyze custom neighborhoods at the block level. All market comparison is free with no account required.
All third-party platforms use inferred bookings rather than actual Airbnb booking records, since Airbnb does not share that data externally. Accuracy depends on collection frequency, dataset size, and inference algorithms. AirROI's daily collection across 20M+ listings provides one of the highest-resolution datasets available, validated against 15+ years of historical patterns.
STR cap rates typically range from 5-12%, with higher rates in markets with lower property values and stronger rental demand. Cap rate alone does not capture financing costs. Cash-on-cash return and DSCR (Debt Service Coverage Ratio) are more complete metrics for leveraged investments. AirROI provides the revenue data needed to calculate all of these.
Yes. Property managers and lenders use AirROI's API and Atlas data for underwriting STR income potential. The Revenue Calculator provides comparable-backed revenue estimates suitable for pro forma analysis, and the API enables automated portfolio screening at scale.
