How we estimate

Revenue: Chalet's estimate of what a 6-bedroom Airbnb at 2818 Avenue R could book in a year, from 3 comparable Airbnbs nearby and their observed bookings. It's gross revenue: before the Airbnb host fee, management and every other cost. The occupancy and nightly rate are the ones behind that estimate.
Price: Zillow's Zestimate for the address until you change it. Use the asking price if the home is listed.
Costs: Defaults you can change: 10% management and a 3% Airbnb host fee (of revenue); 1% property tax and 1% maintenance (of price, per year); insurance at 0.5% of price; utilities and internet at $150 a month plus $100 per bedroom; $200 a year for an STR license.
Financing: 25% down, 7% interest over 30 years, 1% closing costs and $20,000 to furnish, unless you change them.
Returns: Cash flow is revenue minus every cost and the mortgage. Cash-on-cash divides a year of cash flow by the cash to close. Cap rate divides net operating income by the price.
Other sites: Other calculators pick different comparable homes, time windows and defaults, so their numbers differ. Compare the comparable homes, not just the headline.
