Utah Airbnb Calculator

Project a Utah 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. Utahdefaults 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.

Utah STR assumptions

This page seeds the calculator with a starting property value of $480,000.00 and a starting ADR of $188.00. 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 Utah effective property-tax rate of 0.48%. 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 Utah investing profile: No statewide restrictions. Park City and Summit County have active STR regulations (Park City has some of the highest STR permit fees and restrictions in the Mountain West). Salt Lake City has enacted STR regulations. Moab/Grand County has STR regulations. Park City and Moab STR rules are actively evolving — critical for STR investors.

Market context: Salt Lake City/Salt Lake County (largest market, most liquid, hybrid). Utah County (Provo/Orem — BYU/UVU anchor, tech boom, hybrid). Davis County (SLC suburb, Hill AFB, strong rental demand, hybrid). Weber County (Ogden, more affordable, cash flow + hybrid). St. George/Washington County (fast-growing retirement/outdoor market, appreciation). Park City/Summit County (premium STR market, high appreciation, heavily regulated).
