Memphis Rental Analysis
Most managers price off a handful of listings they happened to see. We track every rental in Memphis, refreshed nightly, and benchmark every competing manager. Type your address and see a clear, comp-backed number right now, on this page, with the actual listings behind it.
Most Memphis owners are guessing on rent, and a guess costs you both ways. Price it $150 low and that is $1,800 a year left on the table. Price it too high and it sits empty, where two slow months cost more than a full year of underpricing. The right number is the one that does neither.
How we know
Every record above, narrowed to one answer for you: what your property can rent for, today.
County records, deeds, permits, every live listing and nightly rate flow into one Memphis intelligence engine. Here is what goes in, and what you get back.
We track 1,950+ Memphis short-term listings and benchmark 690+ hosts and operators on occupancy, revenue, nightly rate, rating and superhost status. Because we see the whole market, we can prove what actually drives revenue here, not national averages.
Amenities that actually move Memphis STR revenue
Median annual revenue of Memphis listings with each amenity vs without. Trailing 12 months, as of June 2026.
For your address we compare what it earns as a long-term rental versus a short-term one, on real local performance.
Cover photo, title, amenities, photo count, superhost status: we have measured which of these earn more in Memphis, and it shapes every listing we run.
We know who manages each rental in the city and exactly how they operate: photo quality, listing depth, deposit and fee norms, self-tour adoption, and how fast they fill a vacancy. 57 management companies benchmarked and counting. That is the market read that tells us precisely where your property can win.
For any competing rental we can name the manager and show how their listings stack up: photo quality, watermarking, tour options, how long their units sit.
The going rates for deposits, application fees and self-guided touring across the market, so your terms compete on purpose.
How fast rentals actually lease, area by area, so the lease-up plan is grounded in local reality.
The moment a competitor lists near you, it is in our data. We price against the market that exists today, not last quarter.
The same address, priced four ways. The difference is the data behind the number.
| Self-manage | Typical Memphis PM | National platform | Longstep | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Data behind the price | A few listings you saw | A handful of recent comps | A national model estimate | Every active Memphis listing, sourced |
| How fresh | Whenever you last looked | Last quarter, often | Lags the local market | Re-checked every night |
| Comps you can see | None | Sometimes | No, just an estimate | The real listings, shown to you |
| Long-term vs short-term | Pick one and hope | Usually one or the other | One product | Both, compared head to head |
| Knows your competition | No | Rarely | No | Every Memphis manager benchmarked |
Not a one-line estimate. A detailed owner report on your exact property: the long-term rent range with every comp behind it, the short-term revenue estimate at a realistic occupancy, the strategy that fits, and the local market read. In plain language, no jargon, no obligation.
These are the same numbers we price our own Memphis listings on.
Type your Memphis address. We run the numbers and send back a clear, comp-backed analysis of what it can rent for, long-term or short-term.
A comp-backed analysis like this is the kind of work owners pay for. Yours is free. It is the same analysis we run before taking on a property, and the best way to show you we know Memphis. No pressure to switch managers, and every month you price off a guess is rent you do not get back.
It depends on the property and neighborhood. We run your exact address against every active Memphis rental we track, refreshed nightly, and send back a long-term rent range with the comps behind it plus a short-term revenue estimate at a realistic occupancy. The analysis is free.
National tools run an algorithm off limited data and openly report a typical error band of 10 to 20 percent, which on a Memphis rental can be a couple hundred dollars a month. We price off real, current Memphis listings we re-check every night, and we show you the comps behind the number instead of a black-box estimate.
It depends on the property, the neighborhood, and the numbers. For your address we compare what it earns as a long-term rental versus a short-term one on real local performance, and we factor in the Memphis short-term rental permit and lodging tax, so you can decide on facts instead of a guess.
Yes. Memphis requires a short-term rental permit (apply fee around $300, renewal around $150) and short-term stays carry local lodging tax. Our analysis flags permit eligibility for your address so the short-term number is realistic, not theoretical.
The free analysis gives you the rent and revenue side of that decision: what the house can earn long-term or short-term, in today's market. That is the number most owners are missing when they weigh renting against selling.
Yes. It is the same analysis we run before taking on a property, and there is no obligation to work with us. We do not sell your information.
We re-check more than 9,300 active rental listings every night, capturing new listings the day they go live, price changes, and the day a listing disappears. More than 200,000 data points are refreshed nightly, so your analysis reflects the market as it is today.
Based on the trailing 12 months of Memphis short-term rental data, listings with a hot tub earn about 2.4 times the median revenue of those without. BBQ or grill (1.6x), fireplace (1.5x) and pool (1.4x) also lift revenue. Top-earning listings average 28 photos versus 23 for the rest.
Yes. We benchmark 57 Memphis management companies on photo quality, listing depth, deposit and fee norms, self-tour adoption, and how fast they fill a vacancy, so we know precisely where a given property can win.
