Quarterly average across active listings
Score a specific Detroit address against revenue, occupancy, and yield benchmarks.
Detroit's ADR rises 29% from Jul ($141) to May ($182), but occupancy rises 2.7× in the same window. The revenue lever here is occupancy capture, not pricing — set rates competitively in shoulder months to maximize summer bookings, then push ADR aggressively in peak months when demand is inelastic.
