By The Numbers: 2025 In Review
How We Stack Up Against the Market
Our Greater Palm Springs portfolio booked 44.2% of available nights in 2025, compared to 40% across the broader market and significantly above similar listings within Airbnb. In an oversupplied desert market, this performance reflects disciplined pricing, seasonal strategy, and careful calendar control.
Dynamic pricing, pet-friendly positioning, and a focus on longer stays help us extract more value from each calendar while protecting peak-season rates and guest quality.
Our listings draw almost three times the impressions—153% higher— than comparable homes during May ’24 → Apr ’25, according to data collected through Airbnb.
High-impact photography, A/B-tested headlines, and dynamic pricing tools keep us locked above the fold, reaching travelers before they even start filtering.
Airbnb shows our homes on page 1 of search results 55.7% of the time, weighted across 12 months from April 2024 – April 2025.
That means every other guest search in our price bands starts with an Open Air Homes listing—boosting inquiries and brand awareness for every owner in the portfolio.
Out of every 10,000 search impressions, we convert 18 bookings versus the market’s 11—a 60 % uplift on Airbnb.
This efficiency turns views into paid nights, raises annual revenue, and shields owners from slow seasons when every inquiry counts.
Guests stay 9.7 days with us; the market averages 4.8 days according to “similar listings” in Airbnb Insights. That’s 102% longer than the market average.
Longer stays cut turnover costs, boost review volume, and reduce neighborhood churn, creating a sustainable growth loop.
