Gross bookings per Manchester listing averaged $15,046 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Tennessee average: $42,043), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.
In a typical year, the average Manchester listing brings in $3,470 in June, its best month, and $1,260 in January, its slowest. February runs within 2% 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 3.9 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.
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.
June earns about 2.8 times what January does

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 Manchester listing earns about $1,870 a month, but one property can land well above or below that. The Airbnb calculator gives a range for a specific address, built from the comparable listings around it.
Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Manchester Airbnb took in $15,046 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $840 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 $1,420 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $1,390 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $950 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $720 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.

Nightly rates
The average nightly rate in Manchester, known as ADR (average daily rate), was $166 over the past year, about 48% below the Tennessee and U.S. averages (both about $320). In a typical year, rates peak in June at about $190 and bottom out in February and October at about $145.
Prices span a wide range: the top 10% charge about four times the rate of the bottom quarter.

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 Manchester it averaged $61 over the past year, from about $41 in a typical January to about $116 in a typical June.

Permits
None of the 43 active listings in Manchester 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 Manchester.
