Profit

Is an Airbnb in Carapungo Profitable?

Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Carapungo Airbnb took in $1,833 in the 12 months to May 2025, counting listings open only part of the year, and a listing in the top quarter, run by its owner at everyday costs, keeps about $290 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 Carapungo's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Carapungo listings are booked on 31% or more of their nights, against 21% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $22 adds about $221 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $32 a night or more, against a median of $22. 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 $180 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. October brought the average listing about $490, against $176 in July, 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 $400 a month, against $150 for the average one.
