Profit
Is an Airbnb in Kirkebygda Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Kirkebygda Airbnb took in kr 132,307 in the 12 months to May 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about kr 7,600 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 14,400 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the kr 12,400 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about kr 8,600 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about kr 6,600 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.

- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Kirkebygda listings are booked on 39% or more of their nights, against 22% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of kr 1,625 adds about kr 16,200 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge kr 2,260 a night or more, against a median of kr 1,625.

For the average listing, a 10% higher rate on the nights it already books adds about kr 12,000 a year.
- Open for the busy months. July brought the average listing about kr 41,300, against kr 2,620 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Kirkebygda listings average 4.77 stars, and 43% carry Airbnb's Guest Favorite badge, which guests can filter for.
