In this Monday Market Data Report, co-host Mark Lumpkin breaks down the short-term rental numbers for Park City, one of the most in-demand ski towns in the country.
This episode reveals some of the largest performance gaps we’ve seen in any market — where top-performing properties earn more than double what average listings make in the same bedroom category.
Inside the data, you’ll learn:
- What 3-bedroom homes earn at average vs. top-tier performance levels
- Why performance matters more than bedroom count in Park City
- How 4- and 5-bedroom homes can push well into six figures annually
- Why 6+ bedroom properties are producing $300K+ per year
- How nightly rates and occupancy combine to create massive revenue swings
The takeaway is clear: in Park City, average properties get crushed, while well-designed, well-executed homes dominate the market.
If you’re investing in ski towns, underwriting luxury STRs, or deciding whether Park City is worth the premium buy-in, this episode gives you the real numbers behind the hype.
