Profit
Is an Airbnb in The Nation Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average The Nation Airbnb took in CA$10,831 in the 12 months to July 2025, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about CA$15,480, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CA$950 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.

How The Nation's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of The Nation listings are booked on 65% or more of their nights, against 42% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of CA$110 adds about CA$1,090 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge CA$160 a night or more, against a median of CA$110. 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 CA$1,080 a year.
- Open for the busy months. July brought the average listing about CA$3,030, against CA$1,030 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
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 CA$1,290 a month, against CA$900 for the average one.
