Profit
Is an Airbnb in Waihopai Toetoe Community Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Waihopai Toetoe Community Airbnb took in NZ$25,870 in the 12 months to March 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about NZ$1,480 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 NZ$2,780 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the NZ$2,360 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about NZ$1,680 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about NZ$1,290 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.
