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.
The typical Yarmouth listing earns about $3,970 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb estimator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.
Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Yarmouth Airbnb took in $41,000 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $2,360 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 $3,810 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $2,960 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,610 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $2,050 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.

Permits
None of the 41 active listings in Yarmouth 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.
