Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Chemnitz?

Gross bookings per Chemnitz listing averaged €6,766 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Saxony average: €10,950), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Chemnitz listing brings in €1,160 in June, its best month, and €674 in February, its slowest. Both ends are close calls: June leads August by 4%, and February sits just 4% below January, so either pair can swap places in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 29% 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 3.5 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn €1,890+ a month, about 2.6 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn €1,270 or more, roughly €540 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about €729 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn €355 or less, about half of the median.

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.

June earns about 1.7 times what February does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Chemnitz Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Chemnitz Airbnb took in €6,766 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 €11,760, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about €630 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 Chemnitz's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Chemnitz listings are booked on 53% or more of their nights, against 32% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of €74 adds about €743 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge €97 a night or more, against a median of €74. 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 €610 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, June brings the average listing about €1,160, against €674 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Chemnitz listings average 4.77 stars, and 33% 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 €980 a month, against €560 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in Chemnitz?

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, €77. The 12-month ADR of €81 averages each listing's own rate across its whole year; the monthly points average listings month by month, so the two differ.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Chemnitz?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Chemnitz it averaged €27 over the past year, from about €23 in a typical January to about €39 in a typical June.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn €48+ per open night, about twice the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn €35 or more, about €11 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about €24 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn €15 or less, about 60% of the median.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Chemnitz

2% of the 468 active listings in Chemnitz display a registration, permit or license number. A low share doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

Registration, permit, zoning and tourist-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the local authority before buying or listing in Chemnitz.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Chemnitz?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Chemnitz Airbnb grossed €6,766 in the 12 months to September 2026, 38% below the Saxony average of €10,950, counting listings open only part of the year. A listing at the top-quarter mark, run by its owner with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, has about €630 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
