The Surge Take: Frisco

Frisco scores 79.6/100 on Surge's STR market score, ranking #17 of 55 Dallas-area submarkets we track. That puts it in the top tier of the Dallas market — the score blends guest demand drivers, proximity to attractions and employers, and property fundamentals, and Frisco performs across the board. The average listing here grosses $41,208/year — about 17% below the Dallas metro average, so unit selection and design matter more than usual.

The revenue profile is a $225 average daily rate at 62% occupancy (RevPAR $113). That's a healthy mid-market ADR — the sweet spot for durable demand from both leisure and work travel. As a suburban submarket, demand skews toward families, relocations, and medical or project stays — larger homes tend to outperform.

Regulation-wise, Frisco falls under Frisco, which allows short-term rentals with compliance requirements — Annual license required; city cap at 25% of residential units; 7% city HOT. Registration-style regimes are manageable and tend to thin out casual competition, which can favor professional operators.
