Profit
Is an Airbnb in Kushimoto Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Kushimoto Airbnb took in ¥1,625,027 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ¥94,000 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 ¥220,000 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the ¥62,000 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about ¥99,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about ¥81,000 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 Kushimoto's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Kushimoto listings are booked on 56% or more of their nights, against 37% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ¥9,000 adds about ¥90,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ¥21,900 a night or more, against a median of ¥9,000. 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 ¥156,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, December brings the average listing about ¥287,000, against ¥124,000 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Kushimoto listings average 4.88 stars, and 50% 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 ¥314,000 a month, against ¥135,000 for the average one.
