Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Dover?

Gross bookings per Dover listing averaged $37,860 over the 12 months to September 2026 (Vermont average: $38,492), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

In a typical year, the average Dover listing brings in $9,160 in February, its best month, and $2,580 in September, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 43% 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 3.4 times as much as a bottom-quarter one.

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $11,100+ a month, about 3.3 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $6,050 or more, roughly $2,700 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $3,330 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,730 or less, about half 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 Dover listing earns about $3,330 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

Is an Airbnb in Dover Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Dover Airbnb took in $37,860 in the 12 months to September 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,990 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 $3,650 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $4,790 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $2,390 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,710 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 Dover's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Dover listings are booked on 42% or more of their nights, against 27% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $405 adds about $4,050 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $600 a night or more, against a median of $405. 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 $3,310 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. In a typical year, February brings the average listing about $9,160, against $2,580 in September, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Dover listings average 4.85 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 $5,730 a month, against $3,160 for the average one.

Permits

Airbnb Permits and Registration in Dover

12% of the 502 active listings in Dover 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 Dover.
