How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in University Gardens?

The average University Gardens listing brought in $1,560 in August, its best month, and $507 in February, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 34% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Across University Gardens's 19 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $1,690+ a month, about 1.6 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $1,400 or more, roughly $340 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $1,060 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $748 or less, about two-thirds 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.

Booking lead time is the days between booking and check-in, and length of stay the nights per booking, for stays in that month. *Apr 2026 is the latest month and looks incomplete: its occupancy sits well below the calendar months either side of it, as the latest month often does before late bookings are recorded.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in University Gardens Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average University Gardens Airbnb took in $6,073 in the 12 months to April 2026, an average that counts every active listing, including those open only part of the year. A listing in the top quarter took in about $8,000, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $490 a month of that is left after running costs, so a home that costs less than that to own or rent makes money.

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 University Gardens's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of University Gardens listings are booked on 58% or more of their nights, against 41% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $140 adds about $1,400 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $205 a night or more, against a median of $140. 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 $550 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about $1,560, against $507 in February, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. University Gardens listings average 4.45 stars, and 0% 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 $670 a month, against $510 for the average one.
