Zillow × Airbnb Matcher Skill

This skill finds for-sale properties that already have an active Airbnb listing nearby — using GPS-based geo-matching to cross-reference Zillow and Airbnb data.

Send any of these messages:

Message	What Happens
`search airbnb 78704`	Search Austin TX zip code

How It Works

Zillow search — Finds all for-sale properties in the ZIP code (~2 seconds)
Airbnb search — Finds all active Airbnb listings in the same area (~3 seconds)
Geo-matching — Matches properties within 100-200 meters using GPS coordinates
Investment analysis — Calculates cap rate, cash flow, mortgage, and break-even occupancy

⏱️ Total runtime: ~5-10 seconds per search (RapidAPI is fast)

Important Notes

Revenue estimates are based on nightly rate × 70% occupancy. For precise data, use AirDNA ($100+/mo)
Geo-matching means the Airbnb may be a neighbor's property, not the exact same house — always verify
Free tier gives 100 Airbnb + 600 Zillow searches per month (RapidAPI free plan)

Investment Metrics

The tool calculates (with 20% down, 7.25% rate, 30yr fixed):

Cap Rate — annual return on full purchase price
Cash-on-Cash — return on your actual cash invested
Monthly Cash Flow — what's left after ALL expenses
GRM — how many years of revenue to pay back purchase price
Break-even occupancy — minimum % booked to not lose money

Investment Grades

🟢 A (Excellent) — Cap ≥6%, CoC ≥10%, occupancy ≥85%
🟡 B (Good) — Solid returns, normal market risk
🟠 C (Fair) — Works but thin margins
🔴 D (Weak) — Avoid unless value-add opportunity
