The Trifecta

One asset. Three wealth-building engines.

1
📈

Appreciation

Scottsdale properties have averaged 5% annual appreciation. A $1M property could gain $250K+ in equity over five years — while you own it, it grows.

2
💰

Cash Flow

Premium Scottsdale STRs generate $80K–$160K per year in gross revenue. That's roughly 8% of purchase price annually — real income from day one.

3
📋

Tax Deduction

Cost segregation identifies ~40% of your purchase price as eligible for 100% bonus depreciation. On a $1M property, that's a $400K deduction in Year One.

How It Works

Three steps. One phone call to start.

1

Buy

Purchase an Arizona short-term rental property. Old Town Scottsdale condos start at $350K, with luxury homes ranging up to $2M+ with proven rental demand and strong year-round occupancy. I personally fly to Arizona for every showing and closing — you're never handed off to another agent.

2

Study

A cost segregation engineer analyzes your property to reclassify components (cabinets, fixtures, landscaping) for accelerated depreciation. Studies start at $5K.

3

Deduct

Claim 100% bonus depreciation in Year One. Your CPA applies the deduction against your W-2 or business income. Design partner Somerled Designs maximizes property revenue.

📊 AirDNA-Powered Research

I Don't Guess at Markets.
I Use the Data.

Before recommending any property, I pull the AirDNA numbers — the same platform professional STR operators use. That means your acquisition decision is backed by real revenue history, not hypotheticals.

AirDNA aggregates performance data across millions of short-term rentals. I use it to identify which specific neighborhoods, property types, and price points deliver the best occupancy and ADR in the Scottsdale market.

The Research Process

How I go from market data to a specific property recommendation

Market Screening

I screen Scottsdale sub-markets by RevPAR and occupancy floor. Only zones meeting minimum thresholds make the shortlist.

Property Type Analysis

Within qualifying zones, I identify which property types (condo, SFR, luxury) generate the highest revenue-to-price ratio for your budget.

Comp Set Benchmarking

Every candidate property gets benchmarked against its actual competitors — same bedrooms, same neighborhood, same listing quality tier.

Revenue Projection

I build a conservative 12-month revenue model using the comp set's trailing data, seasonal curves, and a realistic ramp-up assumption.

Tax Overlay

The revenue projection feeds directly into your cost segregation deduction model — so you see the full financial picture before making an offer.

Go / No-Go Decision

You get a clear summary: projected revenue, Year 1 tax savings, cash-on-cash return, and 5-year wealth projection. Either it pencils or it doesn't.
