Revenue
How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Portland?
Gross bookings per Portland listing averaged $26,788 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Oregon average: $35,882), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Portland listing brings in $4,180 in July, its best month, and $1,960 in January, its slowest. February runs within 3% of January, so either can be the slowest in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 35% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.
In a typical month, a top-quarter listing earns at least 2.4 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
- Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $5,740+ a month, about 2.2 times the typical property.
- Strong performers (top 25%) earn $3,810 or more, roughly $1,300 a month above the median.
- Typical properties (median) earn about $2,560 a month.
- Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,590 or less, about 62% 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.
The typical Portland listing earns about $2,560 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb estimator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.
Profit
Is an Airbnb in Portland Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Portland Airbnb took in $26,788 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,470 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 $2,200 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $2,520 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,680 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,270 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 Portland's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Portland listings are booked on 76% or more of their nights, against 59% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $130 adds about $1,300 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $190 a night or more, against a median of $130. 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 $2,430 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $4,180, against $1,960 in January, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Portland listings average 4.88 stars, and 61% 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 $3,320 a month, against $2,230 for the average one.

How much does an Airbnb cost per night in Portland?
The average booked night in Portland cost $173 before fees. Half of listings charge between $96 and $190, so bedroom count and location move the price more than the average suggests.

Yes, if you live in the home at least 270 days a year: Portland allows a resident to rent one or two bedrooms to up to five guests with a $504 Type A permit, and three to five bedrooms with a conditional use approval. The Portland Airbnb regulations set out the permit, its cost, the taxes on a stay and the operating limits, each linked to its official source.

Yes, when it's run well. The average Portland Airbnb grossed $26,788 in the 12 months to September 2026, 25% below the Oregon average of $35,882.

A home that costs less than that to own or rent makes a profit, and a listing at the top-quarter mark leaves about $2,200 a month. Check a specific home in the Airbnb calculator.
