In a typical year, the average Homewood listing brings in $5,440 in July, its best month, and $2,200 in February, its slowest.

Across Homewood's 25 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $7,790+ a month, about 2.4 times the typical property.

- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $2,280 or less, about three-quarters of the median.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Homewood Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Homewood Airbnb took in $41,279 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $2,130 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 $3,250 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $5,240 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,560 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,830 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 HOA or condo fees.

How Homewood's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Homewood listings are booked on 66% or more of their nights, against 48% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $250 adds about $2,500 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $320 a night or more, against a median of $250. 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 $3,600 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $5,440, against $2,200 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Homewood listings average 4.77 stars, and 48% 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 $5,220 a month, against $3,440 for the average one.
