Idaho Airbnb Calculator

Project a Idaho short-term rental with state property-tax and insurance defaults, editable platform fees, lodging-tax treatment, operating expenses, cash flow, and break-even occupancy.

Local verification required. Idahodefaults do not determine whether an STR is legal at a specific address. Verify city, county, zoning, HOA, primary-residence, permit, tax-registration, and platform collection rules before relying on the projection.

Idaho STR assumptions

This page seeds the calculator with a starting property value of $440,000.00 and a starting ADR of $163.00. These are screening defaults, not local revenue data. Replace them with nearby comparable STRs, seasonality, and actual booking history when available.

Property tax is seeded from the Idaho effective property-tax rate of 0.5%. Insurance uses the same state risk model as the other REI analyzers. Lodging tax is deliberately user-entered because city, county, tourism, convention, and occupancy taxes are often local.

STR diligence note from the Idaho investing profile: No statewide restrictions. Sun Valley, McCall, and Coeur d'Alene have active STR ordinance frameworks. Resort market STR rules are evolving.

Market context: Boise/Ada County (largest market, strong appreciation, hybrid). Meridian/Nampa/Caldwell — Treasure Valley corridor (fastest-growing, SFR demand). Coeur d'Alene/Kootenai County (north Idaho, appreciation + STR). Idaho Falls/Bonneville County (eastern ID, cash flow, INL employment). Twin Falls (cash flow, agricultural economy).
