Profit
Is an Airbnb in Koforidua Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Koforidua Airbnb took in GH₵62,391 in the 12 months to April 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 GH₵109,580, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about GH₵6,730 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 Koforidua's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Koforidua listings are booked on 23% or more of their nights, against 13% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of GH₵515 adds about GH₵5,140 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge GH₵1,070 a night or more, against a median of GH₵515. 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 GH₵6,240 a year.
- Open for the busy months. May brought the average listing about GH₵32,700, against GH₵2,950 in January, 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 GH₵9,130 a month, against GH₵5,200 for the average one.
