What does the Salt Lake / Park City market look like right now?

The pull covers 4,217 active listings, a very large sample. The $705 average rate is the highest anywhere RevFactor has a page, and the 34% occupancy is the lowest. Put those together and you have a market that sells expensive nights and leaves many of them empty.

Occupancy of 34% with a $705 rate gives $252 RevPAR. In a market this lopsided, the annual figure describes nobody's actual year: the peak months run far above it and the rest of the calendar runs far below.

That pairing is the signature of a ski resort town. A rate over $705 only works for the weeks that carry it, and the calendar outside them is priced for a different guest. Comparing 34% occupancy to a beach market's would mislead, because the two are selling different seasons.

The 69-day booking lead time is the longest on the RevFactor map, against 51 days in Tucson and 61 in Lake Geneva. Winter dates sell well before the snow, so a host who sets February rates in January is pricing the leftovers.

The 4.9-night average stay sits in the middle. Park City guests tend to book multi-night trips, and the minimum-stay rule on a peak week decides whether a single Saturday gets stranded. The sample is large, but it spans condos, cabins and large homes, so the table is a reference and not a number for any one address.

Hosts sometimes read 34% as a sign of weak demand. Here it mostly reflects a market that prices for a few strong months and accepts that the rest of the year is quiet, which is a different thing from poor pricing.

When does Salt Lake / Park City earn the most?

The three highest RevPAR months over the window were January, February and March, with February at $463 the best. The lowest was May at $103, so the best month earns 4.5 times the worst. RevPAR rises 154% between November and December and then falls 67% between March and April.

How do we price an Airbnb in Salt Lake / Park City?

Park City has the sharpest season on the map, and the ski months do the work. RevPAR runs $293 in December, $386 in January, $463 in February and $349 in March. Then April falls to $115, and May to $103. The question is not whether to price winter high, it is how precisely.

Inside winter the weeks are not equal. February is the peak at $463, and I want those dates priced early and held, because the guests who book them book far ahead. I use the comp set to see which weeks are filling and which lag, and I raise rate on the first group before the calendar tells me I was too cheap.

The cliff is April. RevPAR drops 67% from March, and the market stays low through June. A host whose March rate carries into the first week of April will wait for a guest who is not there. I set the end-of-season date from pacing, not from the calendar, and I move the rate in steps instead of all at once.

Summer and autumn are a floor and minimum-stay exercise. July recovers to $191, but that is still far below the winter peak of $463. September at $104 and May at $103 are where a high rate sits empty. I weigh a modest rate that books against a premium rate that does not.

A 69-day lead time cuts two ways. Early winter bookings lock in a rate months ahead, so a base rate that looks safe in August can be wrong in January. I compare the rate on booked dates with the current rate on the same dates to see whether early guests got a bargain.

The sample here is large and the season is clear, but one year of data cannot say when the snow will arrive or how the holidays will fall. I read pacing every few weeks instead of committing to a seasonal plan in autumn.

The holiday weeks inside December and February deserve their own rules. Demand around them is concentrated, the lead time is long, and a minimum stay of five or seven nights can protect the calendar from a patchwork of short bookings. I check whether the longer rule holds the week together or only turns guests away, and I keep it only on the dates where it helps.

Salt Lake City homes sit in a different market from Park City ones. A Salt Lake home may not follow the ski calendar to the same degree, so I do not copy the Park City season map onto it. I build its comp set from nearby listings and let its own pacing tell me what the year looks like.

All of this runs inside the host's own PriceLabs account. The host keeps guest messages, cleaning and the listing, and the strategist keeps the rate rules, floors and minimum stays.

Who is RevFactor for in Salt Lake / Park City, and who is it not for?

A GOOD FIT

  • You own one to five homes or condos in Park City or Salt Lake City and your winter calendar is your year.
  • Your off-season is thin and you want a floor and a minimum stay worked out by date.
  • You want a flat monthly fee that does not grow with your highest-earning months.

NOT A FIT

  • You want a company to run guests, cleaning or turnovers. RevFactor handles pricing and calendar rules only.
  • You expect a summer peak. The Park City data shows a winter one by a wide margin.
  • You own more than five properties and expect the flat price. Larger portfolios move to enterprise pricing.

What does RevFactor cost for 1 to 5 properties?

A Salt Lake / Park City owner pays $350 per property per month, plus a one-time $150 onboarding fee for each home. The price is identical whether a Salt Lake / Park City home sits on a $705 average night or a far cheaper one, and RevFactor takes no share of Salt Lake / Park City booking revenue. The Utah terms match every other market and sit on the pricing page.

How were these numbers measured?

Market figures come from AirROI's market summary for the Park City locality, pulled 2026-10-16, covering 4,217 active listings. The seasonality series is AirROI's monthly RevPAR for the same locality from October 2025 to September 2026. RevPAR is revenue per available night as AirROI computes it. The best-to-worst ratio and the percentage changes between months are my arithmetic on those twelve values. One locality stands in for two cities, and one year shows the shape of the season without forecasting the next.
