Frequently Asked Questions

Typical premium?

Corporate housing: 40-80% premium over unfurnished. Short-term rental (3-6 months): 50-100%. STR/vacation: 2-4x (daily rates). Minus: vacancy, turnover costs, furnishings, cleaning, management fees.

Breakeven?

Corporate housing: 70%+ occupancy breakeven vs standard. STR vacation: 50%+ breakeven depending on premium. Break-even analysis varies by market — tourist city different from relocation market.

Risks?

Vacancy between stays. Furnishings damage/replacement. Legal restrictions (STR bans in many cities). Management overhead. Tax differences (unlike long-term lease). Match strategy to property location and market type.

How often should I rerun this?

Rerun this calculator whenever inputs change materially — new rent roll data, rate moves, loan balance updates, or quarterly operating data. For active deals, monthly refresh is typical. For stabilized assets under monitoring, quarterly is fine. Treat the output as a decision tool, not a one-time answer — market conditions evolve and so should your analysis.
