Profit
Is an Airbnb in Bruces Hill Profitable?

How Bruces Hill's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Bruces Hill listings are booked on 31% or more of their nights, against 17% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of JMD 57,900 adds about JMD 579,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge JMD 136,000 a night or more, against a median of JMD 57,900. 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 JMD 463,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. March brought the average listing about JMD 1,230,000, against JMD 515,000 in September, 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 JMD 1,093,000 a month, against JMD 386,000 for the average one.
