Revenue

How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Essex Junction?

Gross bookings per Essex Junction listing averaged $30,073 over the 12 months to April 2026 (Vermont average: $40,614), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

The average Essex Junction listing brought in $5,280 in August, its best month, and $1,940 in March, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 37% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Across Essex Junction's 18 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $5,620+ a month, about 2.2 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $3,800 or more, roughly $1,200 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $2,560 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $1,660 or less, about two-thirds 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. 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. *Apr 2026 is the latest month and looks incomplete: its occupancy sits well below the calendar months either side of it, as the latest month often does before late bookings are recorded. It may be revised and is not counted as a best or worst month.

Profit

Is an Airbnb in Essex Junction Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Essex Junction Airbnb took in $30,073 in the 12 months to April 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,610 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 $2,410 a month.

Cleaning it yourself keeps the $3,020 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,870 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,390 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 Essex Junction's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Essex Junction listings are booked on 62% or more of their nights, against 48% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $170 adds about $1,700 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $255 a night or more, against a median of $170. 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 $2,710 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about $5,280, against $1,940 in March, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
  • Reviews that stand out. Essex Junction listings average 4.85 stars, and 67% 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 $3,710 a month, against $2,510 for the average one.
