Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Wilmington?

Gross bookings per Wilmington listing averaged $26,331 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Ohio average: $27,235), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Wilmington listing brings in $2,960 in October, its best month, and $2,180 in January, its slowest. Both ends are close calls: October leads August by 2%, and January sits just 4% below November, so either pair can swap places in a given year. The swing is mild: the best month earns about 36% more than the slowest.

In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 2.2 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $4,970+ a month, about twice the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $3,480 or more, roughly $1,100 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $2,380 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,580 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.

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.

Location, size and how a home is run move its income far more than a city average shows. For a range on one Wilmington address, run it through the Airbnb estimator.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Wilmington Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Wilmington Airbnb took in $26,331 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,380 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 $2,040 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $2,880 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,620 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,190 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 Wilmington's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Wilmington listings are booked on 61% or more of their nights, against 48% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $160 adds about $1,580 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $230 a night or more, against a median of $160. 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 $2,350 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, October brings the average listing about $2,960, against $2,180 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Wilmington listings average 4.86 stars, and 67% 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 $3,210 a month, against $2,190 for the average one.

What Is the RevPAR for Airbnb in Wilmington?

RevPAR, or revenue per available night, divides a listing's income by every night it was open to book, so it rises with both price and bookings. In Wilmington it averaged $87 over the past year, from about $70 in a typical January to about $95 in a typical October.

Per open night, by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $149+ per open night, about twice the median.

  • Typical properties (median) earn about $78 per open night.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $58 or less, about three-quarters of the median.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Wilmington

None of the 75 active listings in Wilmington 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 Wilmington.

Is Airbnb profitable in Wilmington?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Wilmington Airbnb grossed $26,331 in the 12 months to September 2026, in line with the Ohio average. Run by its owner, with the cleaning fee covering the cleaner and everyday costs for Airbnb's fee, utilities, supplies, upkeep and insurance, $16,601 a year (about $1,380 a month) is left before the mortgage or rent. A home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit, and a listing at the top-quarter mark leaves about $2,040 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb calculator.
