Profit
Is an Airbnb in Tanjong Karang Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Tanjong Karang Airbnb took in RM 26,938 in the 12 months to August 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 RM 57,360, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about RM 3,530 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 Tanjong Karang's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Tanjong Karang listings are booked on 21% or more of their nights, against 12% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of RM 400 adds about RM 3,980 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge RM 545 a night or more, against a median of RM 400. 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 RM 2,690 a year.
- Open for the busy months. November brought the average listing about RM 7,590, against RM 1,190 in July, 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 RM 4,780 a month, against RM 2,240 for the average one.
