Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Chiba?

Gross bookings per Chiba listing averaged ¥2,032,741 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Chiba Prefecture average: ¥3,732,661), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Chiba listing brings in ¥229,000 in August, its best month, and ¥161,000 in February, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 27% 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 3.3 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn ¥446,000+ a month, about three times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn ¥279,000 or more, roughly ¥130,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about ¥148,000 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn ¥82,200 or less, about 56% 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.

August earns about 1.4 times what February does

Average revenue per active listing, by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, ¥195,000. Each point is one month as recorded, averaged over the listings active in it. The best and slowest months in the text average each calendar month over the past two years, so they can differ from the highest and lowest points here.

Chiba Airbnb Data by Month

Latest 12 months in the September 2026 data. September's figures are still coming in, so the rows run to August.

May 2026 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in August 2026 and bookings in November 2025, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest. Across the past two years, August is usually the strongest month.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Chiba Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Chiba Airbnb took in ¥2,032,741 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ¥110,000 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money. A listing in the top quarter leaves about ¥211,000 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the ¥172,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about ¥125,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about ¥95,000 a month.

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 Chiba's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Chiba listings are booked on 59% or more of their nights, against 39% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ¥11,900 adds about ¥119,000 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ¥19,500 a night or more, against a median of ¥11,900. 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 ¥186,000 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about ¥229,000, against ¥161,000 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Chiba listings average 4.72 stars, and 30% 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 ¥321,000 a month, against ¥169,000 for the average one.

Occupancy

What Is the Airbnb Occupancy Rate in Chiba?

Chiba listings were booked on 41% of the nights they were open over the past year, 4 percentage points above the Chiba Prefecture average (37%) and 8 points below the Japan average (49%). In a typical year, occupancy climbs to 49% in April and falls to 38% in January.

The busiest tenth of listings are booked about 3.5 times as often as the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) are booked 78%+ of open nights, 39 points above the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) fill 59% or more, roughly four nights a week.
  • Typical properties (median) fill about 39% of open nights.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) fill 22% or less, under two nights a week.

April is usually the busiest month in Chiba, January the quietest

Nightly rates

How Much Does an Airbnb Cost per Night in Chiba?

The average nightly rate in Chiba, known as ADR (average daily rate), was ¥17,150 over the past year, about 48% below the Chiba Prefecture average of ¥33,100 and about 40% below the Japan average of ¥28,800. In a typical year, rates peak in July and August at about ¥17,700 and bottom out in September and November at about ¥14,800.

Prices span a wide range: the top 10% charge about 3.7 times the rate of the bottom quarter.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) charge ¥30,800+ a night, about 2.6 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) charge ¥19,500 or more, about ¥7,600 above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) charge about ¥11,900 a night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) charge ¥8,370 or less, about two-thirds of the median.

August rates run 20% above November's

Average nightly rate (ADR), by month, September 2024 to August 2026

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, ¥16,000. The 12-month ADR of ¥17,150 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 Chiba?

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 Chiba it averaged ¥6,540 over the past year, from about ¥5,560 in a typical January to about ¥7,380 in a typical August.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn ¥11,900+ per open night, about 2.5 times the median.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn ¥8,680 or more, about ¥3,900 a night above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about ¥4,790 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn ¥2,990 or less, about 62% of the median.

August RevPAR is about 1.3 times January's

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Chiba

83% of the 88 active listings in Chiba display a registration, permit or license number. The share shows what hosts display, not what local rules allow: it can't show whether new permits are still issued, or whether limits on nights, zones or property types apply.
