Abstract: A computer-implemented system and method for determining optimal placement strategy for rental accommodations. The system is executed in a computer-implemented environment, and comprises a server and a visitor device in communication. The server is configured to receive a request data for placement strategy from the visitor and determine one or more placement strategies based on the request data. The request data includes check-in date, check-out date, location of interest and one or more amenities specified either as mandatory or as useful. A visitor assigns criterial monetary values for useful but not necessary amenities, for commute from the lodging unit to the location of interest, for moving from one to another lodging unit. The placement strategy includes information about moving from one premise to another within the same trip, the amount of the customer’s payment, and a criterial value that allows the visitor to choose the best value placement strategy.
