Investment thesis
Other. Something looks interesting but the data isn't clean enough for a confident tier — we flag instead of cheer.
What we do next
- ✓Explain exactly why we flagged it (thin comps, market anchor, inland mismatch, price, title wording, etc.).
- ✓Still show the math transparently so you can pressure-test with us.
- ✓Honest STR numbers benchmarked to proven local operators (4.8★+, 30+ reviews (or 4.75★+, 50+ reviews), 180+ bookable nights TTM) — never part-timer medians.
- ✓A full property report with comps, recipe traits, and a plain-English verify checklist.
- ✓Direct access to the operator — I review serious inquiries personally.
Your verify checklist
- ▢Verify list price, coordinates, bedroom count, and titled vs concession status.
- ▢Walk the property or send a trusted local before treating any yield as real.
- ▢Confirm fee-simple title, water letter, and exact parcel location before an offer.
- ▢Treat gross yield as a screening number — net cash flow depends on management and your use of the home.
Flags & caveats
- · Comp set quality is low — wide spread, thin sample, or bedroom mismatch.
- · Inland location — revenue adjusted down vs beachfront comps; confirm local demand.
Short-term-rental underwriting

This is an automated screen built on third-party rental data (AirROI, trailing 12 months) and public broker listings — not an appraisal, inspection, or investment recommendation. Gross yields benchmark proven operators (4.8★+, 30+ reviews); rough net assumes ~35% operating expenses before financing and owner-use weeks. Verify list price, registered title, water availability, and Maritime-Zone status before any offer. Methodology: puravidaportfolio.com/methodology · © 2026 Pura Vida Portfolio.
