Profit
Is an Airbnb in Kvæfjord Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Kvæfjord Airbnb took in kr 309,770 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about kr 18,100 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 kr 41,100 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the kr 10,100 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about kr 19,000 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about kr 15,600 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.

How Kvæfjord's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Kvæfjord listings are booked on 63% or more of their nights, against 44% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of kr 1,495 adds about kr 15,000 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge kr 2,800 a night or more, against a median of kr 1,495. 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 kr 30,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, February brings the average listing about kr 49,800, against kr 18,600 in April, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Kvæfjord listings average 4.84 stars, and 50% 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 kr 57,700 a month, against kr 25,800 for the average one.
