In a typical year, the average Renens listing brings in CHF 2,690 in August, its best month, and CHF 1,620 in March, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 29% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

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.
August earns about 1.7 times what March does

The dashed line is the average of the months shown, CHF 2,160. Each point is one month as recorded, averaged over the listings active in it. The best and slowest months in the text average each calendar month over the past two years, so they can differ from the highest and lowest points here.

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 Renens Airbnb took in CHF 16,769 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about CHF 1,020 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 2,020 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the CHF 770 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about CHF 1,080 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about CHF 890 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.
