How Much Do Airbnb Hosts Make in Richford?

Gross bookings per Richford listing averaged $12,106 over the 12 months to April 2025 (Vermont average: $40,614), before cleaning, platform and management costs and taxes.

The average Richford listing brought in $3,600 in February, its best month, and $514 in August, its slowest. The three strongest months bring in 40% of a full year's revenue, where an even calendar would give any three months 25%.

Across Richford's 19 active listings, monthly revenue by tier:

  • Best-in-class properties (top 10%) earn $4,430+ a month, about 2.5 times the typical property.
  • Strong performers (top 25%) earn $2,440 or more, roughly $700 a month above the median.
  • Typical properties (median) earn about $1,740 a month.
  • Entry-level properties (bottom 25%) earn $963 or less, about 55% 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 Richford Profitable?

Yes, when it's run well. The average Richford Airbnb took in $12,106 in the 12 months to April 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $740 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 $1,040 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 Richford's Top Earners Get There

  • More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Richford listings are booked on 50% or more of their nights, against 39% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $125 adds about $1,270 in bookings.
  • Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $150 a night or more, against a median of $125. 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 $1,210 a year.
  • Open for the busy months. February brought the average listing about $3,600, against $514 in August, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.

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 $1,410 a month, against $1,010 for the average one.
