Gross bookings per Launceston listing averaged A$40,384 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Tasmania average: A$44,866), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Launceston listing brings in A$5,370 in January, its best month, and A$3,270 in August, its slowest.

The three strongest months bring in 31% 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 2.6 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn A$7,900+ a month, about 2.1 times the typical property.

The typical Launceston listing earns about A$3,680 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb revenue calculator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.
Profit
Is an Airbnb in Launceston Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Launceston Airbnb took in A$40,384 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about A$2,060 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about A$3,130 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the A$5,410 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about A$2,520 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about A$1,770 a month.
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.

How Launceston's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Launceston listings are booked on 72% or more of their nights, against 53% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of A$230 adds about A$2,280 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge A$315 a night or more, against a median of A$230. That is a separate ranking from the busiest quarter, so the two marks don't multiply into one listing's takings. For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about A$3,500 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about A$5,370, against A$3,270 in August, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Launceston listings average 4.83 stars, and 53% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.
What a listing keeps comes down to the figures this page measures: nightly rate, nights booked and the months it's open. A listing at the top-quarter mark takes in about A$5,060 a month, against A$3,370 for the average one.
