In a typical year, the average Forest Home Township listing brings in $11,800 in July, its best month, and $1,770 in March, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 50% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Forest Home Township Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Forest Home Township Airbnb took in $38,518 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $2,070 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 $3,780 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $4,090 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,410 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,780 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 Forest Home Township's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Forest Home Township listings are booked on 54% or more of their nights, against 36% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $335 adds about $3,370 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $450 a night or more, against a median of $335. 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 $3,440 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $11,800, against $1,770 in March, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Forest Home Township listings average 4.88 stars, and 75% 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 $5,790 a month, against $3,210 for the average one.
