October 2025 led on revenue. Nightly rates peaked in November 2025 and bookings in July 2026, so the best-paying month is not always the busiest or the priciest.

Profit
Is an Airbnb in Augusta Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Augusta Airbnb took in $28,941 in the 12 months to October 2026, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,410 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 $2,440 a month.
Cleaning it yourself keeps the $4,390 a year guests pay in cleaning fees, for about $1,770 a month. Handing the listing to a co-host at about 10% of nightly bookings still leaves about $1,200 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 Augusta's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Augusta listings are booked on 68% or more of their nights, against 49% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $195 adds about $1,950 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $295 a night or more, against a median of $195. 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 $2,460 a year.
- Open for the busy months. In a typical year, October brings the average listing about $4,840, against $3,150 in May, so a calendar that is open and full in the busy months carries the year.
- Reviews that stand out. Augusta listings average 4.84 stars, and 82% 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 $4,130 a month, against $2,410 for the average one.
