Profit
Is an Airbnb in Sighișoara Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Sighișoara Airbnb took in lei 25,359 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 lei 43,350, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about lei 2,740 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 Sighișoara's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Sighișoara listings are booked on 43% or more of their nights, against 25% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of lei 270 adds about lei 2,700 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge lei 365 a night or more, against a median of lei 270. 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 lei 2,490 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, August brings the average listing about lei 5,270, against lei 1,510 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Sighișoara listings average 4.81 stars, and 57% 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 lei 3,610 a month, against lei 2,110 for the average one.

Top-Earning Airbnbs and Hosts in Sighișoara
The top-grossing Airbnb in Sighișoara, a five-bedroom home, took in lei 135,000 over the past year, about 5.3 times the city's average of lei 25,400. One of the top-grossing listings, a private room at lei 3,317 a night (about 6.5 times the lei 510 that puts a listing in the top 10% here), is left out below: a price like that usually means it covers several rooms or units, or that it is misrecorded. Four of the six listings below have two bedrooms or fewer, so size alone doesn't explain the top of this market.

How much can I make on Airbnb in Sighișoara?

For one home, enter its address and bedroom count in the Airbnb calculator: it compares the home with similar listings nearby.
What is the average Airbnb occupancy rate in Sighișoara?
Listings in Sighișoara were booked on 29% of available nights over the past year. That compares with 27% for the Mureș average. August is usually the busiest month.
How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Sighișoara?
The average booked night in Sighișoara cost lei 343 before fees. Half of listings charge between lei 195 and lei 365, so bedroom count and location move the price more than the average suggests.
Do you need a permit for an Airbnb in Sighișoara?
None of the active Sighișoara listings display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply, so confirm registration, permit and tourist-tax rules with the local authority before buying.
Is Airbnb profitable in Sighișoara?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Sighișoara Airbnb grossed lei 25,359 in the 12 months to September 2026, 23% above the Mureș average of lei 20,619, 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 lei 2,740 a month left before the mortgage or rent, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit.
