Gross bookings per Çekmeköy listing averaged ₺407,267 over the 12 months to April 2025 (Istanbul average: ₺484,113), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
The average Çekmeköy listing brought in ₺103,000 in May, its best month, and ₺43,900 in April, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 33% 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.

Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Çekmeköy Airbnb took in ₺407,267 in the 12 months to April 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about ₺24,800 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 ₺69,300 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.
