Profit
Is an Airbnb in Delafield Profitable?
Yes, when it's run well. The average Delafield Airbnb took in $30,516 in the 12 months to August 2025, and run by its owner at everyday costs, about $1,860 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 $3,210 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 Delafield's Top Earners Get There
- More nights booked. The busiest quarter of Delafield listings are booked on 64% or more of their nights, against 38% for the median listing. Ten more booked nights a year at the median rate of $240 adds about $2,390 in bookings.
- Prices that follow demand. Ranked by price, the top quarter charge $350 a night or more, against a median of $240. 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 $3,050 a year.
- Open for the busy months. August brought the average listing about $5,300, against $2,040 in February, 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 $4,360 a month, against $2,540 for the average one.
