Building and customizing comp sets

Creating an accurate comp set is the foundation of a strong revenue projection. SummerOS lets you use auto-generated comps or manually select listings to match your strategy.

Find the full video on building revenue projections from start to finish below, or keep reading to learn more about this aspect of projecting revenue.





1. Review the Auto-Generated Comp Set

After building a new revenue projection:

• SummerOS will suggest comparable homes based on key attributes (e.g., bedrooms, pool, location).
• You’ll see these comps highlighted on the map.

2. Define Your Submarket

• Use the map tools to draw or confirm your submarket boundary.
• Focus on a hyperlocal area where your home will truly compete.

3. Apply Advanced Filters

Refine the dataset by:

• Bedroom count
• Gross revenue
• Listing duration
• Amenities

Apply these filters to reduce noise and improve accuracy.

4. Hand-Pick Comps That Match Your Vision

• Click each listing to preview key data and linked Airbnb profiles.
• Use toggles to add/remove listings from your comp set.
• Look for homes that reflect your intended upgrades or target guest experience.

5. Build a Strong Set

Aim for:

• At least 8–10 homes in the comp set
• Full-year listings with strong occupancy and revenue
• A mix of homes you can realistically outperform or match

6. Save and Continue

Once your comp set looks solid:

• Click Continue to proceed to revenue targeting.
• SummerOS will now calculate your average revenue benchmarks based on this comp set.
