Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in El Tránsito?

Gross bookings per El Tránsito listing averaged C$252,255 over the 12 months to September 2026 (León average: C$213,790), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average El Tránsito listing brings in C$40,700 in January, its best month, and C$13,900 in October, its slowest. Both ends are close calls: January leads March by 1%, and October sits just 1% below September, so either pair can swap places in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 35% 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 4.9 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn C$71,200+ a month, about 4.2 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn C$38,400 or more, roughly C$21,000 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about C$17,200 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn C$7,710 or less, about 45% 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.

January earns about three times what October does

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, C$28,100. 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.

El Tránsito Airbnb Data by Month

Profit

Is an Airbnb in El Tránsito Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average El Tránsito Airbnb took in C$252,255 in the 12 months to September 2026, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about C$564,200, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about C$35,000 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 El Tránsito's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of El Tránsito listings are booked on 46% or more of their nights, against 27% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of C$1,950 adds about C$19,500 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge C$3,625 a night or more, against a median of C$1,950. 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 C$25,000 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, January brings the average listing about C$40,700, against C$13,900 in October, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. El Tránsito listings average 4.89 stars, and 56% 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 C$47,000 a month, against C$21,000 for the average one.

Yes, when it's run well. The average El Tránsito Airbnb grossed C$252,255 in the 12 months to September 2026, 18% above the León average of C$213,790, counting listings open only part of the year. A listing at the top-quarter mark, run by its owner with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, has about C$35,000 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
