FAQ
Direct answers
- What data does Roilyze use?
- Short-term rental comps come from AirROI. Long-term rent and value estimates come from RentCast. Geocoding uses OpenStreetMap Nominatim. We do not scrape Airbnb ourselves.
- Why a range instead of one number?
- Nearby comps disagree. A single average hides that. We report the 25th, 50th, and 75th percentile of matched comps so you can size the floor, not just the median.
- Is this financial advice?
- No. Reports are statistical estimates from third-party data. They are not appraisals, not DSCR underwriting, and not a recommendation to buy or pass.
- How is the deal score calculated?
- A 0–100 blend of STR cash-on-cash (50%), STR gross rent multiplier (30%), and LTR cash-on-cash (20%). Useful for ranking two deals. Not a substitute for your own spreadsheet.
- What expense and down-payment assumptions do you use?
- 25% down on the purchase price you enter. STR operating expenses at 35% of STR revenue. LTR operating expenses at 45% of annual rent. Those are stated on the report; they are not customized per market yet.
- What happens when I hit the monthly limit?
- The analyzer returns an error and points you to pricing. Failed API calls do not consume a credit. The counter resets at the start of each calendar month.
- Can I cancel?
- Yes. Open Account → Manage billing. Stripe’s customer portal handles cancellation, invoices, and payment method updates. Access drops to the free cap at the end of the paid period.
- Do you store the properties I analyze?
- Yes, on your account, so you can reopen them. See the Privacy Policy for what we keep and why.
