Murphy & Hanging Dog should not be screened out on booking revenue alone. Its $23,924 average trailing-year booking revenue is below the wider market's $38,286, yet median potential gross yield is higher at 9.6% versus 8.8%.
Potential gross yield uses annual revenue potential and matched home values, rather than trailing-year booking revenue, and excludes expenses, financing and taxes. At this revenue level, fixed operating costs deserve careful attention: a higher potential yield does not create more booking dollars to pay the bills.
