Profit
Is an Airbnb in Roodeplaat Profitable?
Yes, as extra income from a home or room you already have. The average Roodeplaat Airbnb took in R 49,812 in the 12 months to February 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 R 5,980 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 Roodeplaat's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Roodeplaat listings are booked on 26% or more of their nights, against 16% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of R 610 adds about R 6,090 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge R 1,375 a night or more, against a median of R 610. 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 R 4,980 a year.
- Open for the busy months. December brought the average listing about R 8,830, against R 2,230 in May, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
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 R 8,110 a month, against R 4,150 for the average one.
