Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Colchester?

Gross bookings per Colchester listing averaged $45,566 over the 12 months to October 2026 (Vermont average: $40,614), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Colchester listing brings in $9,670 in July, its best month, and $2,620 in March, its slowest. August runs within 1% of July, so either can come out on top in a given year. The three strongest months bring in 41% 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 2.8 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $10,800+ a month, about 2.5 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $7,080 or more, roughly $2,700 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $4,410 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $2,470 or less, about 56% 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.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Colchester Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Colchester Airbnb took in $45,566 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $2,440 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 $3,960 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $4,360 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,800 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $2,100 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 Colchester's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Colchester listings are booked on 59% or more of their nights, against 41% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $340 adds about $3,390 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $505 a night or more, against a median of $340. 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 $4,120 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, July brings the average listing about $9,670, against $2,620 in March, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Colchester listings average 4.87 stars, and 68% 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 $6,100 a month, against $3,800 for the average one.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Colchester

7% of the 88 active listings in Colchester display a registration, permit or license number. A low share 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 Colchester.
