In a typical year, the average La Barca listing brings in MX$8,970 in December, its best month, and MX$3,750 in October, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 36% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Profit
Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average La Barca Airbnb took in MX$38,883 in the 12 months to September 2026, counting listings open only part of the year, and a listing in the top quarter, run by its owner at everyday costs, keeps about MX$4,190 a month after running costs.
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.
