Profit

Is an Airbnb in Hersey Township Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Hersey Township Airbnb took in $36,685 in the 12 months to August 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $2,230 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 $4,450 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 Hersey Township's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Hersey Township listings are booked on 63% or more of their nights, against 38% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $190 adds about $1,900 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $295 a night or more, against a median of $190. 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 $3,670 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. July brought the average listing about $6,780, against $3,350 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.

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 $6,040 a month, against $3,060 for the average one.
