Profit
Is an Airbnb in West Buffalo Township Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average West Buffalo Township Airbnb took in $14,202 in the 12 months to May 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $770 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 $1,270 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $1,450 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $890 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $660 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.

- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of West Buffalo Township listings are booked on 49% or more of their nights, against 32% 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 $180 a night or more, against a median of $130.

- Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about $2,170, against $1,500 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. West Buffalo Township listings average 4.84 stars, and 50% 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 $1,950 a month, against $1,180 for the average one.
