Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Marshall Airbnb took in $22,749 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,250 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 $2,130 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $1,780 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,400 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,070 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.

None of the 40 active listings in Marshall 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 Marshall.

Spread over the average stay of 6.2 nights, that adds roughly $12 a night to what guests pay. For listings that charge one, cleaning fees make up about 8% of gross revenue.
Top earners
The top-grossing listing, a private room at $1,740 a night (about 6.1 times the $285 that puts a listing in the top 10% here), is left out below: a price like that usually means it covers several rooms or units, or that it is misrecorded. Leaving it out, the top earner in Marshall, a two-bedroom unit, took in $73,900 over the past year, about 3.2 times the city's average of $22,700. Three of the six listings below have two bedrooms or fewer, so size alone doesn't explain the top of this market.
