The Atlanta Airbnb Cheat Code: Financing Vacation Rentals with “Projected” Income

Unlocking Short-Term Rental Potential in Atlanta

While long-term rents in Atlanta are stabilizing, the Short-Term Rental (STR) market—specifically in hotspots like zip codes 30312 (Grant Park) and 30318 (West Midtown)—remains a high-yield alpha strategy.

However, traditional banks are notoriously difficult when it comes to financing STRs. They typically require two years of tax returns showing existing rental history on the specific property.

The Problem: The Data Gap

If you buy a new investment property today intended for Airbnb, it has zero history.

  • A bank sees $0 past income.
  • You see $60,000 future revenue potential.

The Solution: Forward-Looking Data

Investor Underwriting uses VALID Reporting and AirDNA data to bridge this gap.

“We fund the future, not the past,” explains Heather Sharpe, Closing Specialist. “We verify the property based on its potential income. If the projected Average Daily Rate (ADR) and Occupancy Rate cover the mortgage debt, we fund.”

Stop Guessing on Yields

The “Hat Trick”we can fund vacant properties up to 80% LTV without a lease in place.

Stop guessing on yields and start using data-driven underwriting backed by our Institutional Partners.
