Market analysis & revenue forecast ← All services Pillar 01 · Listings & Revenue

Know your market before the market moves.

Every quarter, we produce a Vancouver-market deep dive for your specific property — comparable listings in your neighbourhood, seasonal pricing opportunities, occupancy trends, and a 90-day revenue forecast. Owners with quarterly market reviews lift annual revenue 6–9% above set-and-forget peers.

What it is

A quarterly report card on how your property is performing against the market.

Dynamic pricing optimises daily — but it can only work within the parameters you've set. Quarterly market analysis checks whether those parameters still make sense. We look at what comparable properties in your neighbourhood actually earned, where you over- or under-priced, and what the next 90 days look like based on Vancouver's event calendar and seasonality patterns.

The owners who earn the most aren't necessarily the ones with the best properties — they're the ones who adjust fastest when the market shifts. Quarterly analysis is how you do that without spending hours in spreadsheets.
How it works

Four steps from raw data to actionable strategy.

1

Comp set identified

We pull 10–15 comparable properties in your neighbourhood (same property type, similar bedroom count, similar amenity level) and track their rates, occupancy, and ADR over the prior quarter.

2

Your performance benchmarked

We compare your ADR, occupancy, and RevPAR to the comp set — showing where you outperformed, where you left money, and why.

3

90-day forecast built

Based on Vancouver's upcoming event calendar, seasonal patterns from prior years, and current forward-booking pace, we build a 90-day revenue forecast and suggest pricing parameter adjustments.

4

Review call (30 min)

We walk through the report with you on a call. You approve or modify any parameter changes; we implement immediately.

Value to your bottom line

More revenue, compounding year over year.

📊
+8%

Average annual revenue lift

Owners receiving quarterly market reviews outperform their own prior year and their comp set by an average 6–9% annually — compounding over time.

🔍
10–15

Comp properties tracked per review

We don't compare you to the city average — we compare you to the 10–15 properties most similar to yours in your specific neighbourhood.

Quarterly cadence included

Four reviews per year at no extra charge. Pre-onboarding estimate, Q1, Q2/Q3, and Q4 peak-season prep.

And to your guests

Market-calibrated pricing builds trust → trust reduces friction → reduced friction earns better reviews.

Guests booking a property priced relative to the real market feel confident they're getting fair value. A guest who didn't feel overcharged arrives relaxed rather than looking for things to criticise. Lower booking anxiety flows directly into a more generous review.

Market-calibrated pricing

Guests booking a property that's priced relative to the real market (not inflated above comps or suspiciously underpriced) feel confident they're getting fair value.

Relaxed arrival → better experience

Lower booking anxiety → more relaxed stay → more generous review.

Better review → higher rank → higher rate

Market-fair rates + good reviews + high rank → the pricing engine can sustainably raise the floor over time.

In Vancouver

Why quarterly analysis matters more in Vancouver than in most markets.

EVENT CALENDAR · YEAR-ROUND

Vancouver's 90-day event horizon is rich

Vancouver's event density is unusually high for its population — BC Place concerts, Rogers Arena playoff runs, Convention Centre events, Vancouver International Film Festival, Diwali on Commercial Drive, Pride Week. Each creates a micro-demand spike that should be reflected in your pricing parameters 30–60 days in advance. The market review builds this into every forecast.

NEIGHBOURHOOD DRIFT

Your neighbourhood's comp set shifts year-to-year

Vancouver's STR market is heavily influenced by new listings entering and experienced operators exiting. A neighbourhood's comp set can shift meaningfully in 6–12 months. Quarterly analysis catches when your floor price is out of date relative to new supply — and when a competitor exiting the market gives you pricing room.

REGULATORY UPDATES

STR rules change — pricing needs to follow

When a municipality tightens licensing (Vancouver's principal residence rule, Richmond's B&B restriction), supply contracts and prices rise for compliant listings. When new municipalities add licensing pathways, supply expands. We track Metro Vancouver's regulatory calendar and reflect it in the forecast.
