Profit
Is an Airbnb in Dallas Profitable?
Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Dallas Airbnb took in A$5,017 in the 12 months to May 2026, counting listings open only part of the year, and a listing in the top quarter, run by its owner at everyday costs, keeps about A$400 a month after running costs.
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 Dallas's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Dallas listings are booked on 71% or more of their nights, against 51% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of A$50 adds about A$496 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge A$57 a night or more, against a median of A$50. 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$480 a year.
- Open for the busy months. March brought the average listing about A$1,600, against A$435 in April, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Dallas listings average 4.95 stars, and 45% 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$540 a month, against A$420 for the average one.
