That demand is your strongest asset, and bedroom for bedroom, there's room to price it higher. We normalized the comp set across Chattanooga and Michigan and surfaced close to $1M a year in revenue opportunity, based on what peers at your scale are already earning per room.
Everything here is built from AirDNA's Property Manager analysis, the operator-level dataset that benchmarks named property managers against each other, plus bedroom counts we pulled from each manager's public Airbnb and direct booking pages. AirDNA aggregates Airbnb, VRBO, and direct listings, so listing counts can differ 5 to 15% from a manager's internal numbers. Treat everything as directional, useful for comparison, not as audited financials.
Raw RevPAR rewards whoever runs the biggest homes. A four-bedroom-cabin operator will always out-RevPAR a one-bedroom-loft operator, even if the loft operator prices better per room. Revenue per available bedroom strips that out. When you re-rank on it, some names shuffle, and Unique Stays slips down in both markets.
Juniper Holiday + Home is a luxury Harbor Country operator (lakefront homes at a $941 average nightly rate). It sets a ceiling, not a like-for-like target. Book N Gather is the nearest comparable operator.

* Portfolio-derived bedroom averages, flagged. Unique Stays: 2.99 across their Chattanooga cluster, 2.45 across Michigan, both from their own direct booking site and independently consistent with their Airbnb listings. Timberroot and Juniper carry large out-of-market portfolios, so their per-bedroom figures are directional only.
Unique Stays carries the lowest guest rating in both comp sets, 4.64 in Chattanooga and 4.68 in Michigan, against peers sitting at 4.8 to 4.9. Rating feeds search ranking, which feeds occupancy and pricing power. It is a smaller lever than rate, but it compounds in the same direction.
All math here is calibrated to your short-term-rental book only, the 79 listings AirDNA tracks across these two markets, not your full ~169-unit portfolio. Pacer's expertise lives in STR yield, so we benchmark and price what we can actually move.
Closing your Chattanooga per-bedroom yield to the local peer level (River City and Team PMI both at about $64 per available bedroom per night), across your roughly 179 tracked Chattanooga bedrooms.
These bands reflect first-year RevPAR lift, measured only on Pacer clients who have been with us 12 months or longer. Where Unique Stays lands depends on a conversation we have not had yet.
No commitment, no audit, no pitch. We learn your business, your priorities, your current setup, and where you feel friction. You learn how Pacer thinks and whether we are worth a second conversation.
The gap math is shown in full so it can be audited: both sides come from the same dataset. We do not commit to a number for Unique Stays until we have had a real conversation about your business. Every engagement starts with an intro call, then a custom proposal.
Pacer is the embedded revenue management function for short-term rental operators. We own RevPAR and NOI outcomes, not tools. We are not a PMS, an OTA, a pricing-software vendor, or an owner-comms tool. We operate inside your stack and own the yield.
Rate strategy, length-of-stay pricing, fee-to-rent design, promotional calendars, distribution mix, and owner-ready reporting. Pricing software handles one layer. We run the full stack.
A dedicated revenue manager backed by Pacer's data infrastructure and AI tooling, making daily rate and pacing decisions across your portfolio.
18% median RevPAR lift for clients with us 12+ months. 5.0 on the PriceLabs RM Partner Directory. Month-to-month, no long-term lock-in.
You run a sharp shop with real occupancy strength. The question is whether there is rate left on the table, and we both find that out the same way: by talking. No audit, no pitch, just operator to operator.
Book a 45-minute intro callSources. AirDNA Property Manager exports for the Chattanooga and Michigan markets, plus bedroom counts extracted from each manager's public Airbnb host pages and direct booking sites. RevPAR is ADR × occupancy from AirDNA. RevPAR per bedroom is RevPAR divided by the portfolio's weighted-average bedroom count.
Accuracy. AirDNA aggregates Airbnb, VRBO, and direct listings and can differ from a manager's internal PMS by 5 to 15% on listing count. Revenue estimates are AirDNA's and are excluded from the tables. All figures are directional.
Bedroom extraction. Unique Stays: 2.99 BR across their Chattanooga cluster and 2.45 BR across Michigan, from their own direct booking site, independently consistent with their Airbnb listings. River City, Team PMI, Bridge to Brow, Chatt Vistas, and Book N Gather: from public Airbnb host pages.
Multi-market flags. Timberroot shows 107 Airbnb listings against 53 tracked in Chattanooga; its 1.62 BR average reflects a heavily out-of-market portfolio and its per-bedroom figure is not a clean local comp. Juniper shows about 104 Michigan listings on its own site against 17 tracked by AirDNA; its 3.36 BR average is its Michigan portfolio, isolated from its Montana and Indiana inventory.
Excluded from per-bedroom ranking. Evolve and iTrip (national franchises, no single host page), Glamping Hub (a marketplace, not a manager), Yellow Door (no host page), and RPM Vacations (no host page, zero reviews). These appear in the tables for completeness but carry no reliable bedroom mix.
