Revenue
Gross bookings per Shkoder listing averaged ALL 637,469 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Northern Albania average: ALL 564,343), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Shkoder listing brings in ALL 174,000 in August, its best month, and ALL 29,100 in February, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 48% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 3.6 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.
August earns about 6 times what February does

Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Shkoder Airbnb took in ALL 637,469 in the 12 months to September 2026, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about ALL 1,129,900, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ALL 69,300 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money.
These amounts come before housing costs. Where the mortgage or rent is less each month, the difference is profit; a home owned outright keeps it all after property tax, home insurance and any building or condo fees.
