Profit
Is an Airbnb in Agege Profitable?
Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Agege Airbnb took in ₦2,944,881 in the 12 months to May 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 ₦357,000 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.

How Agege's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Agege listings are booked on 50% or more of their nights, against 28% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of ₦46,000 adds about ₦460,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge ₦61,000 a night or more, against a median of ₦46,000. 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 ₦286,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. April brought the average listing about ₦693,000, against ₦345,000 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Agege listings average 4.74 stars, and 30% 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 ₦478,000 a month, against ₦245,000 for the average one.
