Market search criteria
- Radius: 4.5 km from subject coordinates.
- Bed band: 3BR ±1 (adjacent sizes scaled, not mixed blindly).
- Operator filter: 4.8★+, 30+ reviews (or 4.75★+, 50+ reviews), 180+ bookable nights TTM.
- Comp basis: nearby proven-operator anchor pool.
- V5 strict product type — Airbnb propertyType + title gate (condo vs home lane).
- Operator descale — elite track records (4.9★+ / deep reviews) stripped on comp TTM; for-sale subjects start unproven.

3Credible + weighted44 received positive weight after filters.
4Headline blend4Positive-weight picks that move published headline.
- Apple-to-apple headline pool — non-view proven operators only (subject has no confirmed ocean view). · Apple-to-apple headline pool — non-beachfront proven operators only (subject is not walk-to-beach or beachfront).
- Pin ±1BR — 4 of 4 within 4.5 km.
- Comp band winsor: 1 outlier capped at min(p75×1.1, median×1.15) ($25k/yr scaled) — band spread 3.04× before cap.
- Headline band: low $8k · reconciled $16k · high $25k — min / weight-average / max of bed/location-scaled comps in the table.
§6
Calculation walkthrough
- 1Per-comp scaleraw TTM × bed scale × location descale × operator descaleBed scale bridges ±1BR comps to subject size. Location/luxury descale removes product premiums the subject lacks. Operator descale strips elite track-record lift (4.9★+ / deep reviews) — for-sale buyers start unproven.
- 2Comp weight60% map distance · 40% bedroom matchCloser same-bed comps rank higher; view/walk/luxury/operator descale applied separately.
- 3×Near-small-proofConservative bed bridgeV5 home — band winsor on blend ≥3; weights encode pool, view, walk, product and operator descale.
- 4→Weighted bandLow / reconciled / high on 4 headline compsEach comp is bed- and location-scaled first; low and high bracket the blend; reconciled is the weight-averaged adjusted indication.
§7
Rejected from pool
13 comps did not move the estimate — summary by exclusion reason. Full list (same product type as subject) is collapsed under §1 Estimate blend.
Not proven operator (13)
§8
Reconciliation
- Headline revenue uses the Low indication from the weighted blend — low and high bracket the adjusted comp range.
- Largest driver: Bungalow w/ private pool only 15min from Tamarin… (36.9% of weighted blend).
- 4 of 4 headline comps carry bed, luxury, location, or operator descale before weighting.
Comp band winsor (V3/V4)
- V3 caps scaled comp revenue at pool p90×1.1 before the weighted headline band when spread is wide.
- No comps required capping for this listing — band was already tight.
Location gap (tier 1)
- Subject has at least one premium location trait (ocean view, walk-to-beach, or beachfront) — no tier-1 location haircut applied.
Product positioning (tier 2)
- Gallery segment not confident — positioning haircut only when finish/segment are known.
- No tier-2 positioning haircut — standard segment and rental-ready finish.
What runs when the pool clears
- We rank feasible bed × finish tiers, weight proven comps (60% map distance + 40% beds), and publish the best defensible gross yield on all-in cost.
- No ocean view on broker listing — headline uses non-view comps (apple-to-apple).
- Verify land price, build cost, and title before offering.
§9
Limiting conditions
- —Broker asking price and listing copy — not verified sale or operating statements.
- —STR revenue from AirROI trailing-twelve-months; forward seasonality not projected separately.
- —Gallery vision segment is photo-based; finish gaps may lag physical inspection.
- —Coordinates approximate when broker omits parcel pin — headline withheld.
- —Gross yield excludes capex, furnishing, management, tax, and financing.
