Gross bookings per Savannah listing averaged $18,880 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 Savannah listing brings in $3,280 in July, its best month, and $1,620 in January, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 31% 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 2.6 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.

Profit
Yes, when it's run well. The average Savannah Airbnb took in $18,880 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,030 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 $1,720 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $1,640 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,170 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $890 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.

Permits
None of the 41 active listings in Savannah 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 Savannah.
