The average Molalla listing brought in $2,720 in August, its best month, and $1,110 in November, 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 Molalla's 20 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $4,060+ a month, about 3.2 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $2,370 or more, roughly $1,100 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $1,260 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $824 or less, about two-thirds of the median.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Molalla Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Molalla Airbnb took in $14,791 in the 12 months to May 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $780 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 $1,470 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $1,680 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $920 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $670 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 Molalla's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Molalla listings are booked on 50% or more of their nights, against 34% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $135 adds about $1,360 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $170 a night or more, against a median of $135. 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 $1,310 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about $2,720, against $1,110 in November, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Molalla listings average 4.91 stars, and 55% 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 $2,320 a month, against $1,230 for the average one.
