Gross bookings per Tresa listing averaged CHF 11,520 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Ticino average: CHF 15,853), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Tresa listing brings in CHF 2,720 in July, its best month, and CHF 631 in January, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 38% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 2.9 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
These are monthly figures for listings active in each month. The annual average above also counts listings that operated for only part of the year, so it runs below twelve times these figures.

Averages per active listing in each month. Highlighted: the highest-revenue month of the 12. RevPAR is the month's revenue spread over its nights, booked or not. Booking lead time is the days between booking and check-in, and length of stay the nights per booking, for stays in that month.

Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Tresa Airbnb took in CHF 11,520 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CHF 650 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 CHF 1,020 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the CHF 1,080 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about CHF 740 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about CHF 570 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.
