On this week's episode, Avery is joined by Wayde Hall, a Short Term Shop agent in the Smoky Mountains, to dive into how he uses Price Labs Market Dashboards for short-term rental analysis. Wayde explains how this tool offers highly granular data—like occupancy rates, cleaning fees, and guest capacity—allowing investors to spot performance patterns rather than relying on broad averages. They discuss strategies for comparing neighborhoods, filtering for top-performing properties, and avoiding costly mistakes caused by misleading data from other platforms. Wayde also shares his top tips for new users to avoid overwhelm and focus on the most impactful filters for smarter investment decisions.
