Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Wheaton?

Gross bookings per Wheaton listing averaged $38,210 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Illinois average: $33,660), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Wheaton listing brings in $4,800 in July, its best month, and $2,600 in February, its slowest. June runs within 4% of July, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 32% 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 2.5 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $6,920+ a month, about twice the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $5,150 or more, roughly $1,800 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $3,390 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $2,000 or less, about 59% of the median.

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.

July earns about 1.8 times what February does

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Wheaton Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Wheaton Airbnb took in $38,210 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,990 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 $3,050 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $4,180 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,340 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,710 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 Wheaton's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Wheaton listings are booked on 71% or more of their nights, against 54% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $205 adds about $2,050 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $290 a night or more, against a median of $205. 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 $3,400 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $4,800, against $2,600 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Wheaton listings average 4.89 stars, and 74% 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 $4,840 a month, against $3,180 for the average one.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Wheaton

None of the 31 active listings in Wheaton display a registration, permit or license number. That doesn't mean no rules apply: some places don't ask hosts to show a number on the listing, and listing data doesn't capture every scheme.

Registration, permit, zoning and occupancy-tax rules vary by address and change often, so confirm them with the city or county before buying or listing in Wheaton.
